Those I Feel Bad For

Can I have your attention,Excuse me please

I ve got a question to ask & need to see who agrees

May I borrow a second?...A piece of your time

To lend me an ear while I bust out a rhyme

--------

While I have your attention its best that we start.....

Forget the introduction.... lets just skip that part

Ever notice how many people...you meet in a day.....

that absolutely blow your mind, make you shake your head & walk away...........

They're the people you see... they're all over the place....

The slower kind of the human race

--------

Let me give some examples.... I have quite a few

They fall into this catagory with the stupid **** that they do

 

You're driving your car through the center of town... one steps out onto the crosswalk...eyes pointed down

No checkin both both ways before crossing the street.....

Seem to forget cars still hurt despite white lines under their feet .....

Somehow these idiots manage to survive

My guess is pure luck has kept em alive

 

You constantly see them on the evening news when horrible things happens & they interview fools

Grown *** adults who live without care.....

they say things like " I never thought it could happen around here"

This is usually followed with a "we dont even lock our front door"........

Their town is too pretty & crime only happens to the poor?

 

Really?

Come on, your kidding me right?

Don't they watch themselves on the news at night......

-------------

How could one think with all that happens today that living so blindly is truly okay?

Maybe they don't listen to themselves speak.

Maybe being too sheltered has made them weak?

 

We're different for sure...our worlds too far apart

They wouldnt last a day around here....

They lack the streetsmart

 

I think I've made my point can anybody else agree?

was it decriptive enough, were you able to see?

Have you seen these people?

Do I need to say more........

they're the ones that I can honestly say that I FEEL BAD FOR!!
