Mud Cakes

[Justsomedude]

The wild wonderland

of believed dreams with

good outcomes resting

in the minds of poor kids -

patted down like

little mud cakes and shaped in

old pans on culled lumber porches.

Who's ever gonna fix that rail?

No one.

Kids are busy baking cakes

and the older folks couldn't

care less..

Only those in the middle

are blinded by conformity

and set on edge by competition..

But, in this light, who couldn't surrender their darkness

of cold competition to the light and warmth of these lads?

Who wouldn't make way

for such a thing to happen?

Little lights of

hope that will only fade

into the sunset of adulthood

in due time...

But not today.

Not for them.

They have cakes to bake.

Love.. always

Is this a rap battle? Is it my turn now? 😂

It doesn't even rhyme, but of course. Feel free.

[Justsomedude in reply to Justsomedude]

Oh, it kind of does, I guess. Not intentionally. Just some freehand poetry. No beef.. dawg 🤷‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️
