Desperate Hours
Another day just killing time
I feel like an old burlesques dancer past her prime
Counting the seconds till night time comes
and I am done working for these saltine crumbs
Then you can give me your love with it's magical powers
to heal the pain of these desperate hours

Another retro poem I wrote this 7 years ago. I thought about it now while I surviving my Friday afternoon of work before the weekend.

Six beautiful poetic lines of honesty and of truth, in its purest form of mental clarity.
Enjoy the continuous of your Friday and have an inspiring weekend, my King.
