UNEMPLOYMENT CHECK
Folder:
EVEN WHORES HAVE FEELINGS
Cashing
the unemployment check
and getting drunk
a mixed drink
and dashed hopes
my faith has been diminished
The wars go on
and visions of Mad Max
futuristic holocausts
seem more imminent
Tanking career prospects
so the dreams
naively drive on;
the twisting phantasm
of faded aspirations
No one can
fully realize
but then no one
really seems to care

I have been in the unemployment office and it melts the spirit that recession means no work anywhere. 2 companies closed, one layed everyone off with no promises. Asperations fade - yeah. Another one is due - save, save, save. ~s~
It does suck
