More to Scrape Off My Shoe












More to Scrape Off My Shoe








Long lost is gratitude for helping another


Whether a piece of bread or a publishing break


We have fools with their hands out


But never their hands in helping another


Be they counterfeit cowboys


Or hopeless hippie homeboys


The pain is the same


That your efforts 


Merit no respect.

  1. I’m with you. Too many selfish pricks out there. I don’t know how you do much for these people and they could care if you live or die.

  2. This powerful and all too true. The ungrateful should be scraped off the shoe of the Worthy.

  3. Sad. Work without appreciation and effort without gratitude can drain the spirit. That came across quite well. Hope these feelings are ones that transform. That worth is seen.
