Small Potatoes

Back aching from a day at the sewing machine

Popping ankles from shoes a bit past prime

Cold shower I had on Sunday morning
Second sleepless night this week 
All small potatoes

All small potatoes
Small potatoes
All

News reports of murder
Neighbor burying her mother
Another teenager missing
 Selling of human beings
God have mercy on us all

God have mercy on us all
God have mercy 
On us all
