There was a time
There is a time
when one may need to ask
for shelter
when one may need to ask
for shelter
To please take off
your shoes
To have a king
for a son
to fix a heel
Drink some water
To put the ticket
in a subway machine
To find a cup of stew
a hole in the wall
a room behind the
Fire place or the floor boards
Sometimes we all just need
a place to stay
To spit on your windshield
Fix your rainbow
Sushi, clean your pool
Sometimes someone
Has to die
Because of their name
Because we look like
Someone else
There is fine
for being a productive person
a pound of lard
that must be delivered
a pizza that is just a prank
Anchovies and all
Sometimes we must die
at the foot
of a wall
there is no other way
