my rubber neck – 11/28/12

my rubber neck

there is a fire outside and i don’t even
care to test my rubber neck.
think of the lives in need of saving
because i am not.

the smell of smoke has not reached me.
the pangs of hunger are of more
concern

where i find my next meal that’ll hold
me off until the one after is at the
front of my lobe.
surely someone will stop to help them.
