the jacket

now this jacket here
it is not really mine
i kinda took it from its place
now i wear it
mostly at home where it is protected
some times i wear it out, but mostly not
i try to patch it up
it make me feel good inside
it is not my jacket
it was not my dads
it was passed down
taken down
it was only given once
uncle sam gave it to a cosin
not my cosin
but to a cosin
then it was given again kinda
it is old
warn out
and could be thrown away
but that could never happen
it has sceen snow
rain
sun and night
it kept me warm
it kept dad warm
it kept a stranger warm
it kept a cosin warm
now it keeps a hanger warm
but i know where it is
and i take it out
just to fix it up
so some one can take it from me some day
