The Difference Between Us

The Difference Between us mother told me hurry up you don't want to be late father said to slow down you will only have to wait since I was going nowhere I just kept a steady gait mother said be tidy there's peace in cleanliness father said I'm busy some day I'll get to this since I was doing nothing I organized the mess mother said that luck was the founder of the feast father said that skill killed and cooked the beast since I wasn't hungry my quarry was released mother said find happiness the seed is in your heart father said dont harvest it your sure to fall apart since I am really no one I took pride in having doubt mother said keep smiling let no one hear you fuss father said don't hold back let them hear you cuss so I became the exception to the difference's in us By: Jeremy Siedlecki
