    Poem Commentary

    i wrote this about solicitors, Bill collectors and what not. they always ask "Is there anything else you need today?"

    Is there anything you need today?

    Is there anything else you need today?
    Yeah, I need a job, a house and aplace to put my stuff.
    Need More, Not enuf?
    Yeah, I need to be skinnyand stronger and stuff...
    Is there anything else you need today?
    Yeah, I need to paray more and stop being angry everyday...
    I need to get him off my mind so I can move on!
    I'm sunburnt and he's screwing her.
     I never learnt because I'm a dumb redneck which is why I'm Worthless,
    I'm Trailer Trash but proud of it!
    I'm poor but at least I ain't no whore!
    I've made my mistakes and many I regret, but life ain't over yet.
    You play the cards you get, Good or Bad? You paly with what you had?
    You can make the best or worst of your hand
    and only God truly understands...
    So, Is there anything else you need today?
    Yeah, pay my bills, sell some pills,
    Go to college- Learn some knowledge
    Listen to SOME of what people say
    And Know with God things will be O.k..
    SO HAVE A NICE DAY!
    I'm hanging up now before I go CRAZY TODAY!!

    Nice write relating the actions of pesky solicitors and bill collectors. It's too cool you capitalized SOME in the line *Listen to SOME of what people say*. Gotta save SOME sanity.

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
