Parked at the County jail parking lot…

A new job started last night, hopefully it lasts awhile...not the greatest, but any extra money is a help...



Poem Artwork

After nine,

Another six or so to go, give or take, its fine,

Drove my “new” boss to do his job,

He lost his license, can’t drink & drive,

Now I wait till he is done,

Long boring wait, but its extra money,

And that is what I do everyday for strive…

 

Just two days a week,

A few extra bucks is all I seek,

But sitting here with only a book to read,

Is gonna get on my nerves quick,

But I guess I am good, as long as my pee bottle don’t leak…

 

A few poems seem to come to seed,

The moon out & almost full, I see,

Out here till at least in the morning three,

Would rather be in bed, but think of the money made by me...

Yea it is a good way to make a few bucks and all of the suggestions other reviewers made are good but also maybe it is a good excuse to just lock up the car and go for a long walk...

Keep your quill and parchment with you, Ed! I'll bet we'd get some pretty neat stuff if you do....

Start carrying lots of dog and cat food, and start feeding and catching homeless critters while you wait - they come out at night searching for food.

Well at least it was him, and not you, losing the license, been there, done that, it sucks. Glad you got the job, I agree, any extra money helps, especially with holidays coming up.

I hope you make financial gain, Ed. I know how hard it is now to make ends meet. I would use the bushes though instead of a bottle.:)
GOD BLESS YOU

Damn Ed, where are you that you can't get out of the vehicle and pee? Hope the job last for you.
