Shake the dust.

this is for the fat girls.
this is for the pretty girls.
this is for the girls that are only attracted to girls.
shake the dust.
this is for that emo kid sitting alone in the 700 hall during lunch.
this is for the awkward shy boys.
this is for the kid that always strikes out.
shake the dust.
this is for the this is for the jobless father.
this is for the drug dealer that sits on the corner.
and this is for the wannabes that never will be.
shake the dust.
this is for you single moms.
this is for the poor, sick, and the needy.
this is for the rich guy that wipes his ass with benjamins jus because he can.
shake the dust.
this is for the girls 16 and pregnant.
this is for the invisible.
this is for you.
shake the dust.
and not only is this for you but this is for the races.
and for the genders.
 this is for the people.
shake the dust.
shake the dust because if you dont, eventually your gonna become the dust. and you'll blow away in the wind. like the dandy lions. planting seeds of boring, useless dust on everyone you meet. so shake the dust and shake it hard. so hard your whole body goes numb but you dont care. you dont care because you know its worth it.
