Another cynical poem. Enjoy!


25 pound bag


There didn't used to be
Circles under my eyes
marks on a chart
the hidden charges of life
I didn't use to
cry at the drop of a hat
tear up at movie previews
let them get to me
But life changes
Or is it us that change?
Like changing underwear
or diapers
or kitty litter
At first it seems so nice and new
but then it goes to shit.

Tell me about it! I worry about; what if I loose my job? will someone hire me? do I have the patience to put up with life anymore? I close my eyes and go....What hairs growing where they shouldn't?...life is finally catching up ..it sucks!....JC
