Here I sit
In my basement
In my skivvies
Late at night
Ignoring family duties
Contemplating
What next to write
All I am now
Is skin and bones
No time for a bite
Can't think of when
I last shaved or bathed
Perhaps 2009?
Poetry
While fun for me
Has hung me out to dry
Since joining Hello Poetry
In the prime of my life
Could some one
On the outside
Tell me
Is it day or is it night
Have they dropped
The big one yet
I need a new subject
On which to write

I should think of
Something really nice to say
Thank you...Hello Poetry
For the life I live today
