Whenever I get a pimple, Rash, scrape or scuff, I spread thick white ointment Over my troubled surface. I leave it on through the night and The bed sheets retain the stains Of my blemished past. These superficial treatments Do nothing for my wounds, And every morning I am left Scrapping seagull shit Of the hood of my vehicle. |

That doesn't sound like fun! Hope you don't have a convertible, or if you do, the top is up on it. No, seriously, hope things go better. Your point well made in your poem. Some days/weeks we just step in it and it ain't no fun cleaning those shoes. Better days soon. I liked your comparison. Buttons |
