Onward & Downward...

Poem Artwork

Sorry folks if I do whine too much,

I just kinda hoped for a job or unemployment,

On or before my birthday this upcoming Sunday,

I greatly do appreciate you all & AD,

Allowing me to use this site as a sort of crutch…

 

You’ve all been so kind,

Putting forth advice,

Since I’ve been in this bind,

I guess to be honest,

When my last job I did lose,

I took my chances and did roll the dice…

 

Interviews I have had a few,

Nothing back from them has me quite blue,

But I guess its better than being red or outta view,

Sometimes I feel better, especially when I read my reviews,

That is wholly in part to everyone out there, especially YOU…!

CHEER UP - THINGS COULD BE WORSE!

SO - I cheered up - and things got WORSE!

An Ice-Cold Brew,
And Some Nice Hot Pot -
May Cheer You Up,
And Help A Lot!

A Six-Pack or Two,
And a Whole Bunch of 'Mary'
Will Ease Your Burden -
But Don't Fall on Your Derrie!

A Party Keg, or Maybe Two,
And a Whole Lot of 'Buds'
Of Both Kinds -
Guaranteed to Blow Your Mind!

Then After Your HANGOVER is Over,
You'll Be In The Pink -
Or In The Clover!

P.S. Coming up/down to Ocean View this Weekend - F-Sa-Sun
Call me & I'll Look you up & buy you a beer or two!

Maybe even Kick Yer Arse in POOL!

A homonymless man writes shows what it's like to look up the laid he skirts when you’re lying prone(d) to the sidewalk, beer / joint / needle dangling from your hand /lips / arm.
