A Poem by petwolf
"

I wrote this 2 years ago while I was still living on the street.

"
killer babies and
baby killers
shut off our brains
switch on the fillers
so that all that comes out
the message coast to coast
is safe and clean and
the truth to most
what does it take
how much does it cost
for a one-way ticket
to paradise lost
not an arm and a leg
not even your head
something worth its weight in gold
that one-way ticket is your soul
and that you can do without
I've gone years without mine
and look at me - I'm perfectly fine
just living off the fat of the land
all I got is the change in my hand
that and my dog is all I need
I am the antagonist of GREED

Love this. It flows very well, differently to what I usually read. Interesting ideas, I liked that you capitalized that last word. Sums up that something that is in here
