Poem: Stayed at home from work today,
to ill to even be sad.
To ill to even get out of bed.
Medications to help my mind
that bind me down with zipties.
Pulling the covers over
to all I hide.
Money flowing away as I sleep.
How can I pay the bills
so I can even eat?!
Happiness overrated.
Bills are too deep.
Need a shovel
so I can see my feet.
So hopelessness sets in.
I feel I can't win. ...
