Keep Your Pity

“KEEP YOUR PITY”



think nothing of it.
I have no regrets.
my life is where I want it to 
be.
can you say that?
give your pity to those who 
*****.
to those who change their 
lives to style like the 
furniture in their homes.
trashing their soul to make 
others happy and retrieving 
it again and again.
their rain is dropped by 
their hand.
keep an eye for them.
the word “respect” is in 
their blood.
stand clear of the birds that 
brag freedom while dropping 
**** on your head and flying.
these people follow the mold 
they are made from.
think nothing of the trials 
in my life or how I handle 
them.
deep inside the isolation, 
there is peace.
isolation is true love.
I am the rotting banana that 
hangs.
I am the screw slowly 
reversing out in a pair of 
glasses.
I am the man who inhales
the reality in Bakersfield.


I am the man drinking diet 
coke and eating a piece of 
left over pie just to throw 
the box out.
keep your pity.
God created the world in 
seven days.
you’re going to need more 
than His strength to break me.
