The Deafening

Go get yours
Don’t be naive
A full stomach
And a good place to sleep
The world is either a splurge
Or a scourge

Head start, trickling down
This generation
For the rest of us
The climb is steep
Rebel at how the world revolves
Resist at momentum as it spins

I wake up with arms in pins and needles
Slaving for the faithful's tips
The noise outside
Ripples forward, linear

Sun sets to the deafening
