Waiting for the Food truck -laid off

Waiting for the Gleaner's food Truck- laid off


The Gleaners Food Truck has not arrived on time.

Hunger,Debt and Pride is not prejudice.

Sitting on cracked concrete.

Tired of waiting for some free food.

I read "The River Runs Through it."

Old people, migrant workers, mentally ill and I,trapped by circumstances ,not resolved.

Trying not too eavesdrop, A Mother talks of the struggles feeding her son, the victim of a shallow man.

She explains her false expectations,"My boyfriend is always out of town." as she comforts her Toe head Toddler.

"Smiling Man "rides his Red Scooter Chair in circles, excited for his handout.

Trying to read, I think to my self, angry, frustrated, I cry inside my bones.

"God your great when I don't need you, your painful when needed."

Hunger, Debt, Pride is not Prejudice.
