Sweets

Today my mother bought me sweets

Not the kinds that ive ever expressed a liking to, but i endulged anyway

It made my tea taste a bit funny

I never have enough money to buy lunch

Mother sends me $5 weekly for food, luckily i can get by on water and other food i find laying around

I dont need the money in the first place

No matter how lethargic i get i will never cancel my monthly charity subscriptions

I know it sounds stupid

In the end, i will die, we will all die, none of the people reading this will be here in 100 years time

Nothing i eat matters either

Do you remember what you had for lunch earlier?

It will be much more memorable to those in dire need, 

Being given a rare lunch,

Some solace,

Some comfort and warmth from a hot soup in the approaching blisteringly cold winter.

They will think fondly of that warmth

While i will sigh and hold back stomach acid from eating the same thing

My body is ungrateful
