Problems Confined

"PROBLEMS CONFINED" the !@#$%^ roaches laugh at me because they know I’m trying to kill every last one of them. the children allow their entire family to live. the security guard walks and walks waiting for that precise moment to catch the third child living here. there are three guys in one house and two of them like men, the other one gets **** for the **** he’s adding the tear up to. I brought problems down on me from the father to view. a whore infested hotel with leaky pipes would have given me peace. at this place where it’s all gone to hell, we all have our hours of sex. the two tinker bells get to walk away from it all while I have to hear her. we sit and allow each other to say what is needed. to date, I am the only one who has taken advantage of the gag that consumes us during our table meeting. still, we’ve ignored the little ghost that lives with us. I’m not sure why but if she tickles my balls at night, a few hours of agony I can handle. it’s like a millionaire without money but like anything in life, the chicken can still taste like wood.
