Drawing Straws
Dandi Wind

Everybody lines up for a sucklenEasy slide to their knees ready to bucklenWatchin it sure enough serves to bafflenBut they're all heart splayed for the rafflennCHORUSnIt's a straw draw at the meat troughnOn their knees again for the bossnStraw draw at the meat troughnOn their knees again for the bossnnFrom the lines-end standing on my tiptoesnCrane to see just how far this line goesnAre they packed ten, hundred, thousand deepnHow far does desperation reach?nnBegging all day for a scrap or handoutnDestroy one another vain hopes to standoutnWhy shove / when there's twigs enough for allnJust Take them from the jaundiced claw
