The Cheapest of Glue
we are all damaged goods
they,
do not teach the importance of well being
and for our parents
that generation
they were never taught them about emotions
and,
they all had self-destructive situations
abuse was rife
what was life?
as a consequence we are all damaged goods
shake me
and you can hear the broken pieces inside
and,
why did they not teach the generations before?
because parents
were all damaged too
asking the children to put them back together
with the cheapest glue
