Nancy Jones Poet I do not know?

Figured Out the Answer

I am a writer
I decided the day after
I got my hair
cut.

So that's what I do now
Eschew and eschew.  Wow,
Can somebody tell me how
to stay right here in the now

and not be distracted
by bills and high taxes
and grandmother needing her hair done
while grandpa plays golf?

It can piss me off.

But I've familiarity with hardship and strife
methinks where I wanna be I'll need a wife!
