Fuck it!
I give up!
Thought washing dishes at Denny’s was as low as I could go.
Fucking bill collectors and lawyers don’t ease up.
God Damn It!
Why don’t you all just squeeze a little harder!
I have no where to run!
Tormented by ringing phones,
by screaming ex-wives,
by dreams in my head, that I gave up for pleasure’s vapor.
Author notes
I hope this fits. I tried to get into the mood of "leaving". Wanted to try something more edgy. I hope you are well and make it a short "internet" vacation. They are nice from time to time.
Take care,
Marcellus

Hmmmm....This is very different for you. Not bad, just different. A grim look at leaving. Very dark, with a touch of regret at the end. I like.

Good job on this, but the last line is rather cryptic. I am not sure what it means. Anyway, all in all, good job.

Wow, I like this, edgy, angry...gives you a reason to really "leave" if you think about it. I will try to make it a short internet vacation, trying to get a job, spend more time with family, and I just graduated....so things are hectic. Great write hon, miss ya.
