i'm not that bad

it's no fun being
on the chain gang, but
here I am
in my orange jump suit
in a long
line
of other miscreants
swinging
blades
and rakes to clear
the road.
why is there so much
trash
out here, what's
wrong with people?
throwing out their
wrappers and cups,
cigarette butts,
bottles and cans.
even diapers. who throws
a diaper out the window?
sure, I've done bad
things in my life to put
me here, behind bars.
but i'd never ever
throw a diaper out
a car window.
