Poem Artwork

Money is all spent,

My vacation was heaven sent,

Relaxed a great deal, just what was meant,

Now how do I go about paying the rent…?

 

Okay so I am broke,

May have to in the yard live in a tent,

Told the landlord no money did I have, so get bent,

He reacted in kind, giving me torment…

 

Not to fear kiddies of the den,

Old Ed & Rufuz will get paid again,

This Friday comes my paycheck,

Can I get from the multitudes a loud and boisterous amen…?

AMEN, Brother!

PS Try sleeping in the back of your truck - it's better than a tent - that's what I've been doing - and it ain't too bad, if you get an air mattress.

You could always get into one of the mobile home cities which have sprung up for New Orleans survivors, that ought to fix you up for a while.
