From my first book, "Between Keats and Kerouac", which was published in 2010.
Wait in line
Get your number
Stand around for a while
Check the cupboards
Scan the faces
Hear the Hip
See yourself
How'd it come to this?
Wait your turn
Show ID
Share some small talk
Yeah, I'm sure it's me
Get your veggies
Get your milk
Choose the tomato sauce
And a box of ilk
Carry out your allowance
Feeling low as low can be
See you next week at the food bank
Happy anniversary
