Some of us learn,
Saviours don’t exist.
“Pulling ourselves up,
By our bootstraps.”
Ignorant boomer talk,
Ignoring our survival.
Continued existences,
Of knowing nobody,
No one,
Is coming to save us.
Bootstraps?
As if we haven’t learned to grind –
Merely to subsist on scraps.
Salvation isn’t coming.
Merely To Subsist On Scraps.
