Section 8 Blues
I prepare for an inspection
My lair is now pristine
The bodies are well hidden
And not likely to be seen
I do this for assistance
My voucher for the rent
Which is fairly high
But at least this makes a dent
My writing now erratic
Not as prolific as before
But my heart is with you
And I will be back for more.

Author's Note
The Section 8 renewal process is lengthy and complex. It involves a white glove inspection of my apartment, and much paperwork. Hence my near absence. I will do my best to get back to writing with a bit more regularity, for what it's worth.
All writing remains the property of the author. Don't use it for any purpose without their permission.

If you survived it once (MO)
I`m sure
you can survive it again.
Take care of the Crows`nest;
everything else - including poetry -
can wait😉!

... maintaining a sense of humour through such necessary procedures tells me you'll come through with flying colours :)))

Thank you Josh. Kind of makes me sound like a serial killer, but I'm a harmless man. Usually.

My dear friend. It seems only last month you were going through all this regarding Section 8, but you & Ninja commiserate, and do a yoga exercise, to chant like Buddha will make you both wise.

The Section 8 travails are lengthy, dread combined with the actual process. Now I'm actually in the midst of this. Cringe!
