The Nobody's




Oh no, sorry, we didn’t get the invitation.
No, we weren’t invited to read the scripture at your service.
Oh and as far as making it on the “list”, I’m sure we were at the bottom…or rather,
never made it in the first place.
Yes, we are “the nobody’s”.
the people you love to hate.

the people you love to overlook.
the people you love to forget about.
“the nobody’s”
Neglecting to capitalize our T’s.
and you're Obsessing with our needs
Obsessing like a disease
Envied crossbreeds of the nobody’s conscience
it’s nonsense
that “the nobody’s” were really on your guest list in the first place.
