Scraps are cut and sold
As a stand in for the whole
World to grab and hold
Tear it at the fold
Scraps of troubled tin
Stand in from the cold
Circuits bend and hold
Worlds sight and soul

Scraps and scraps of tape fall
From the skys the clay forms
Traps and traps of hopefuls
Try to close the gap from
Cuts and cuts of pay forms
Losing to the playful
Put the guts in true form
Styles to hold the painful
