Sorry, So tired

There is a soccer team from Manchester

Which play in lots of crappy polyester

Once they played New England

With a failed bicycle kick and

How we mocked them as if we were a jester...

One Day, We’ll Travel Again

Walking down the streets of London

Singing a ditty to myself

The sky is grey

The people walk by

Ignoring me

and I ignore them


Pet the ears of a stray cat

Wondering if I can smuggle

Him home in my suitcase

Do British cats meow

With an accent?...

Underground

Papers, cups, and wrappers fly

as the next tube approaches.

People stand, adults holding

their kids hand.


Two beaming lights and then a blur

of red, white, and bkue.

Some remain sitting, while others

stand, ready to get off.


The doors slide open as people leave

But that’s not what’s this is about

I like Manchester that there’s no doubt

All i know about Manchester is the football

Or soccer or whatever it is you call

But i think Scotland is the best

And i think that should be express...

Letter to my ex

Is so hard to let go

Why is that?


Because you really the first person that I open up

Saw me at my worst

Watched me grow

Could really be my true self with

Would smile even if I did some weird thing


But things change

We weren’t the same people when we first dated

But we still try to work it out


Just like you didn’t notice that you hurt me

You didn’t notice that I didn’t forgot or forgave too

I first saw the advert on Craigslist. I was looking for job offers in my area, having had trouble finding a job with good pay that had flexible hours.


What first interested me was the title:


LOOKING FOR WORKERS- DISCRETION NEEDED.
