OTHER PEOPLE
The others break a thousand,
I can’t even break change.
The others rest their heads on pillows, fall asleep right away,
I can’t sleep at all.
The others have nine dishes on their table,
Sometimes I go to bed hungry.
My house is a shanty,
Theirs is an apartment building.
Theirs is fine music,
Mine is just “oh, oh” in distress.
My bare head is enough for me,
They’ve got a wife and kids.
I’ve lost my goats,
They’ve got a skilled shepherd.
This last name is forbidden to me.
