Self-Styled

So we got these self-styled
Avent-garde cocksuckers
Writing this bullshit about
How life has been so terrible.
Abusive far-less-than perfect
Parents. Designed neglect.
Childhood with no rules for
Punishment meted out to
Deal with supposed infractions
Of unwritten rules. Rags for
Clothes and shoes with soles
With holes so big that your
Socks wear out and feet get
Soaked in the rain, frozen in
The snow. Spaghetti for every
Meal when you ate. It was
Cheap. If you were lucky, it
Came with the special sauce
We call salt. Television was
Something you saw through
The windows of other houses.
Even the poor kids at school
Looked down on you. Always
Picked last at basketball, if
Picked at all. Cry over your
Lot in life. Tough shit. What
Makes you think you’re the
Only member of the club?
That was then, this is now.
Kick ass and move on.
