Took a swan dive off a ledge
Landed in a spiky hedge
Took a swan dive off a cliff
Landed on a Christmas gift.
Took a swan dive off a wall
Landed on a doll inside a mall…

I have been writing for years, but so far I have made little or no money doing it. I will never give up even if I don't make a dime. I mostly write poetry, but I occasionally write essays, commentary, essays and short stories. Some of my work is really good, if I say so myself. You be the judge. I am at my best when I am inspired, but that unfortunately isn't very often.
Poetry: “A Lawless Land” (a work in progress)
A Lawless Land
A ruthless band
Ambushes the unwary
Noone dares to intervene,
So their Fate is nary… (tbc?)
Poetry: “Stranded On The Road” (a work in progress)
Stranded on the road
Skidding in the snow
Called up AAA
Still waiting for a tow
Had a real close call
Right near a big plow
Next storm I’ll stay home
I would like to vow…(tbc?)
Poetry: “Working Retail” (a work in progress)
You don’t need all the details
To know, you’ll never
Get rich working retail
Unless you are a boss
For the rest,
Their budget pays a
Terrible cost… (tbc?)
Poetry: “Homeless For The Holidays” (a work in progress)
Homeless for Hallowe’en
Can be very scary
Coping with poverty can get very hairy.
Homeless during Thanksgiving
Can affect your gratitude
You cannot be blamed
If it gives you and attitude.
Homeless at Christmas
With nowhere to live,
While others celebrate
You have nothing to give… (tbc?)
