microplastics

They keep finding microplastics

In your shitty little body

And no amount of drugs you didn‘t do

Will keep it clean

you left home too young to not get high

before you went to class

and the beers, oh, the beers

you got married way too young

and you keep swiping

and drinking

and swiping

and drinking

and it’s always always always in decay

you keep swimming from paycheck to birthday

to the doctor

but this year it’s different

your village got flooded

but you’re too far and drunk to care

and they ask you how your friends are doing

which ones

the ones who left?

the ones who stayed?

why would you care

they got money

don’t they?

they keep finding microplastics 

in your shitty little body

and no amount of cash you didn’t save

will make you rich
