Finders Keepers
Not many know this secret
but once in their lives
people are disowned by people.
Strangely, oblivious to the pain
that’s obviously theirs to own
they carry on with their lives
disregarding those who
in their plasmic darkness
soak all of their people’s
just so these disowned lonely beings
could look up at the sun
and smile…
