I just tried to submit this...hope it works this time!

it is hard to write love poems
when you are unemployed
weirded out
worried about rent and bills and food
and beyond that
fighting for a solid piece of ground
to stand on
there is no moon out tonight
there are no earth angels
I am not sent
and who gives a shit
about Kansas City
or Georgia
or Alabama
or California
I don't dance anymore
don't walk around flushed
with the rush of new romance
I am in a trance and there's nothing
mystical about it
if you want to be enlightened
by a vortex
flush your toilet
