POETRY AND STUFF

I wrote some poems and lost them when
my darned computer went to hell and back
I used to feel like I was a jinx
Poetry helped me get back on my feet
Now I’m busy as a bee in the spring
Going to classes and answering the phone
When it rings
I just want to hide and tell all the go getters out there
let me alone and let me get out of here
I’ve paid my dues and I’ve done my time
Now I just want to sit and decide
What to do next
Get a job or go back to school
Having a son changed all the rules
