heaven's bread
A billboard next to the expressway
Advertises its bread as heavens bread
The elm trees are overgrown
The paths in the field weren’t made by deer
The next billboard advertises girls
Ever since I was a kid I wanted to be one of them
Cat eye in fishnets and as big as the sky
Kids file in one by one next to the river
Nate’s got the joyride lawn mower stuck again
They’ll drag it back up the river bank
Be home by 10
The sky weighs heavy and they’re in the baby pool with their clothes on again
One blunt for fifteen kids
Didn’t even throw in
Growing on empty only makes your hunger bigger
Throwing your shoulder out with pebbles at stained glass windows
But it’s alright, it’s alright
We’ll be eating heaven’s bread soon

Midwest culture sure is a trip for people who don’t understand social issues (me)
Like you’re expected to offer to pay someone if you feel you owe them in some way (if someone drives you somewhere, if someone pays for your dinner, if someone plays with your kid for ten minutes, etc.) but then the person who is offered the money is also expected to refuse the money which starts a whole round of “Oh I was just being nice” “No really take the money” “Oh you’re such a dear but I couldn’t” “You’re too nice! You sure I can’t give you this money?”
Are midwesterners fae folk? Possibly. Will look into this more. Feel free to add any additional thoughts.

The worst part about being a good midwesterner is that sometimes you meet people for the first time, and you have to tell them “so nice to meet you!! :)” at the end of the interaction even if it was NOT nice to meet them

What if I can’t support my cheese habit?
