Only Human
In the morning
he sits in the corner
where he always sits
alone
as those around him
shake their heads
and say
someone like that will never fit in
(later a drug dealer
will welcome him
as he is)
in the afternoon
she falls to her knees
overcome by depression
as those around her
sigh and whisper
that she is simply getting what she deserves
for the way that she dresses
(later a bottle of alcohol
will make her feel happy
and special
just as she is)
in the evening
they are worn
and wrinkled
from years
of desperate choices
desperate humans
longing
to be loved
