  1. 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…
