We got nothing

Scott Whitby, 2025


We got nothing now


But we've had nothing forever

Just a blanket and this land

This dry creek and this sky

These bird sounds and

This baby that cries


Still, we got nothing now


It's all we ever had

This used up garden and some pigs

A little church and confusing words

The smell of cut grass to bale

We got nothing for sure
