My Cold Home

This damp tank is my current home
where my toes are chilled to the bone.
I simply do as I am told
but the distress is getting old.
I cuddle in the frigid seat,
my home is void of any heat.

Congrats on your very expressive and descriptive work. I hope just a write and not a reality. At least spring is on the way in some parts of the world and maybe outside in the sun will be better. Sara

That is sure a sad one. Hope it is not true for you. Well written lay, Robert
