Caren Krutsinger Poet Free verse

If I Retired How Would I Write

My job brings new ideas to me on an hourly basis
Sometimes up to six ideas an hour
I cannot retire
This is a forest of situations

A plethora of circumstances
A jungle of characters
If I retired, I would not have anything to write about.

So here I stay,
at a job I love,
making great money,
writing myself crazy.
