Tolerable Allowance

Nobody said it wasn’t as captivating anymore.
It’s the smell of morning coffee
Directly in front of your face.
It’s the feeling of being hungry
After a night of drinking.

It’s the satisfaction of
Being unsatisfied.

It’s the calm in the air,
The quiet nothing of the morning,
The green, all of the green,
The greenery surrounding.
Encapsulating,
Swallowing,
Taking

The man made beauty.
The challenge of it all
You didn’t build this.
But you get to enjoy it.
You get to.
Allowance.
Tolerable allowance

Someone’s always giving you something,
Or taking just away enough to keep you hungry
You are the dog.
