(685)▪︎[ Betrayal, Of The Worst Kind … 9•10•2021 ]

[ Wow, That Is A Huge Slap In Your Face ]
[ After Always Welcoming Her Into Your Place ]

[ That Was A Backstabbing That You Cannot Forgive ]
[ She Basically Cut You Down, Because Of How You Live ]

[ How Could She Do This With All That You Have Done ]
[ When She Got Fired Back In January, You Should Have Run ]

[ But No, You Completely Saved Her Ass ]
[ & There Were So Many ( CALL-OUTS ) That You Let Pass ]

[ There Were So Many Weeks, With So Many Empty Shifts ]
[ There Were So Many Times, When You Gave Her Gifts ]

[ She Is Looking A Gift Horse In The Mouth ]
[ It Must Have Been About (4) Months Ago ]
[ When This Arrangement Started Heading South ]

[ Through All Of Those Days, When There Were No Calls ]
[ You Should Have Shown Some Balls ]
[ To Really Look @ The Writing On The Walls ]

[ The (CALL OUTS), (BEING LATE), (LEAVING EARLY) & (NO
     SHOWS) Was Getting To Be A Little Too Much ]
[ She Missed So Much Work ]
[ She Seemed To Be Losing Her Touch ]

[ How Dare She Make That Last Remark ]
[ That Just Showed You How Much She Turned Dark ]

[ She Tried To Cut You Off @ The Knees ]
[ She Built This Entitlement Attitude ]
[ So She Thought That She Could Do Whatever She Pleased ]

[ You Don’t Get It, Because You Gave Her Everything ]
[ She Did Not Give You Anything ]

[ You Don’t Get It ]
[ Because This Is Just A Load Of Bullshit ]

[ She Had It So Easy Here ]
[ If She Is Looking For Someone To Blame For Getting Fired ]
[ She Should Just Hold Up A Mirror ]

[ You Feel So Betrayed ]
[ You Feel Like She Thought You Were A Bug ]
[ So She Sprayed You With Raid ]

[ But Now She Is Reaching Out In An Effort To Explain ]
[ You Don’t Think That It Would Be Worth Your Time ]
[ Just To Hear Her Complain ]

[ Why, Oh Why? ]
[ Did She Have Plans To Hang You Out To Dry? ]

[ Like This? ]

(148)▪︎[ Who Is Worse Off? … 2•16•2020 ]

[ There Are Alot Of People Having It Worse Off Than Me ]
[ I’m Just So Blind To See ]
[ How Bad Things Could Be ]

[ I Could Be Living In The Streets Without A Home ]
[ Then The Few People That I Know ]
[ Would Look @ Me As An ( UNKNOWN ) ]

[ They Would All Turn Their Backs On Me @ The Same Time ]
[ Leaving Me Destitute ]
[ Without Even A Dime ]

[ Are There Bad Times ]
[ Ahead? ]
[ Tomorrow, Will My Process For Making Rhymes ]
[ Be Dead? ]

[ Why Am I Predicting Such a Dark Cloud? ]
[ That Is The Question For The Day ]
[ Are The Voices Loud? ]
[ In Telling Me It Could Easily Be That Way? ]

[ Just Because I Was Born Under A Dark Cloud Doesn’t Mean
I Have To Live Under One ]
[ I Can’t Make A Single Thought Fun? ]

[ @ Times I Feel So Alone, With The Weight Of My World
Pushing Me Down ]
[ By Pushing On My Shoulders ]
[ I Lost My Crown ]
[ As I Got Older ]
[ Now I Constantly Frown ]
[ As My Sweats Get Colder ]

[ Am I Only A Citizen Because Of A Social Security Card? ]
[ Hundreds, Thousands Of Them Are Fraudulently Made ]
[ It’s Not All That Hard ]

[ What If I Lose It, Or It Is Misplaced? ]
[ Would A Knock On The Door ]
[ Bring The I.N.S. & Me Together For A Face To Face? ]

[ Which Country Border Would They Drop Me Off ]
[ @? ]
[ I’d Be Like A Lost ]
[ Cat ]

[ & Once Again Without A House In Which I Live ]
[ I Could No Longer Invite Others In ]
[ So I Could Do My Favorite Thing … Give ]

[ I Bet Not One Person That I Gave To Would Come To My Aid ]
[ They Would Just Look @ Me With A Blank Stare ]
[ Because Their Memory Would Fade ]
[ Now They Won’t Share ]
[ What They Made ]

[ That’s Okay ]
[ I’d Say ]

[ I Came Into This World Naked, Not Owning A Cent ]
[ When I Die ]
[ Maybe Someone Will Wonder Where My Good Life Went ]
[ Even I ]
[ Wonder What Was The Big Life-Changing Event? ]
