Short Dog Eat Dog World Poems

“I just don’t care,”
I tried to pretend,
As if nothing could bother me,
Ever again.
But for this insidious world,
I could not prepare,

A MAN 
LYING ON THE SIDEWALK.
NOT STOPPING TO 
CHECK HIS WELFARE.  
SEEING A MAN
SLAPPING 
A WOMAN.
LOOKING 
THE OTHER WAY.
NOT WANTING
TO GET INVOLED
NOR CARING.
WE  LIVE IN A 
DOG EAT DOG WORLD
WHAT DOES GOD THINK OF US?
DOES ANYONE
REALLY CARE?
 ABOUT ANYTHING?
YIKES

THE TEACHER AND THE FOUNDLING


Dirty raw face
Lost in a vicious
Dog-eat-dog world ,
His tears washed rivulets
Into my chalky hand .

Dissolving into
My soft inner soul ,
He sensed mother
And clung to the skirts
Of my conscience.

My  home’s warm respite ,
Another world of gentle feeling ;
Before the return to darkness
And bruised cold fingers
In beer bottle bedrooms ....

gain at other expense is something i can't codome-
to  it's just way to show you can't do it on your own-
we all have a mission each woman, man, boy and girl , 
yet we act like this is a dog eat dog world-
they say it's equal oppertunity regaurdless of our creed or color
so why is it so hard to succeed without stepping on each other.
we can get alone in this world if we all pitch in and try 
,for somehow i truly believe that everyone deserve a piece of the pie....

it will chew you up and spit you out
then sit courtside and watch as you stomp 
and pout

make no mistake it's a dog-eat-dog world
that vicious growl with tightened jaws will get
stronger when dreams try to unfurl

bitter....   so bitter.....   just so bitter
maybe this explains the countless number of
quitters

but out there believe it or not there is sweet love, 
somewhere
you just have to find it, SO ZOOM,  but know that the search
can be bitterly unfair...
