Hard Times

Hard times are aplenty In the year 2020 Cuffed at the start With a broken heart Another application That won't lead to salvation Perhaps recompense For the times I didn't make sense The job market might be booming But homelessness is looming For a guy like me Who can't seem to see A way out No matter how I shout In the year 2020 Hard times are aplenty

Poignant poem, Christopher. A reminder to never stop shouting or give up hope.
