This recognition means a lot to me and anyone who can directly relate to this poem. Thank you to everyone for all the kind and encouraging words.
Driving Home
It’s cold outside, but I can’t wear a hoodie.
My pants are too tight, but at least it doesn’t look like I’m carrying.
My car is run down, but at least I’m less likely to get pulled over.
I just need to make it a few more blocks…
