Goddamn City-

You made me hate this city?

No,

No I don't hate this city.

I just don't care.

I don't care about the smokers on the balconies of their shabby apartments,

I don't care about the lizards on the walls.

I don't care about the cashier that rolls their eyes at you.

I don't care about the kids that flip you off as you pass.

I don't care about the driver cursing you out.

I don't care about the lady at Burger King yelling at her kid.

I don't care about the lady at Walmart butting ahead in line.

I don't care about the people in this goddamn 'city'.

I shouldn't complain so much though.

There are many other citygoers,

In other cities worse than mine.

I haven't been raped,

And there's always food on the table.

Nobody's run at me with a knife,

And water comes out of the taps.

It's selfish to be so unhappy with what I have.

But even so, I can't stop hating this goddamn city.
