Hard to Swallow

Today's turkey sandwich
The bad service at the restaurant from where today's turkey sandwich came.
Obese pallid unhappy-looking people.
Obese pallid unhappy-looking people with stringy hair hovering at poverty level in the town from where I come.
The town from where I come.
Consumerism.
Which is to say, the status of the dollar.
Rather, the status of dollars plural.
Meth...
Crumbling the edges of the town from where I come.
Privilege
And striving for it.
Holidays sometimes.
