Wrigleyville
The gum-chewing monster Sits Behind
Spouting off her enlightened mind
On makeup, parties, drugs, and boys
With endless amounts of grace and poise
- at least to her - she chomps the facts
it's not only gum of which she smacks
... lack of education, truth, and class,
and ignorant through life she'll pass
without a clue, without the light,
and she will never realize her plight.
- The saddest part is -
she thinks she's all right.

- The saddest part is -

this dark ceiling without a star.
dying is to live.
living is to die.
living, not living - it
is insignificant;
as i am insignificant.
the weight of the world -
this is significant.
the greatness of God - or
not knowing if he is great
- this is significant.
the expectations of
a father, a mother,
a husband, a society, a time,
a lifetime -
this is all too
significant.
oppression overwhelms me
further proving my insignificance.
