unfinished. 




he thinks i'm lower class

before i forget, i'll spray myself in cheap cologne 

 

so you can't smell my sister's cigarettes or the smell of the old-

 

books from the thrift store on my palms

 

you can wash off the dust, but the poverty won't come off

It's quite expository. Nice one.
