Removal Truck With Gas

Moved house
 
Kids and I had outlived
the old space
The rent was  
an unreasonable  
expence  
by the time we got to
the end of last year.
 
The moving of homes
is aparently  
the single most
stressful  
activity in life
 
Got me to thinking
of past
stressful times
The house we were leaving
and memories  
we had built there
 
Remembered five years ago
The year
I lost a business
Divorced a wife
Learnt to deal with death
Moved house
 
Thought about how I just coped
questioned my  
pathetically
incapable
ability to deal  
this time round
 
Damn! I wonder how we  
acumulated so much junk  
in five short years
 
Frankly, this move
this change
this complication
needs to be my last
 
The health and  
strength is waining  
with  
age and violet blood
The mind
emotions
and heart
didn't manage
at the level
I'd be proud of
when we unpacked boxes
made beds
chose a book nook
 
I figure
the active body
temple
retires
earlier
than the creative mind
and strong
entrepeneural ethos
