Scribing 59 - Rats are people too

Rats are people too
Pad Thai is delicious
From the street vendor

Straight faced
Money money money.
Set price

Ok ok, peanut
sweet chili
go

Can't sit there
Rats are people too

Only place to sit
In the middle of the round about
there's an elevation
there's bushes in the middle

People sitting, people laughing
eat eat eat
little things from the bushes they come
inspect the terrain
look for food

we're from the Ong tribe, where are you from
I'm just eating
leave me

But you eat in our home
and we have little food

let us pick the crumbs
Ok
you pick the crumbs

little nudge
wobble here and there
no harm done
we're just inspecting
we'll find the crumbs

apparently society is equal

has anyone else cottoned on to this joke?
