Poor Pitiful Me

Stumblin' through the haze In a dumfounded daze In a muddled malaise Like a mouse in a maze Broke and blase Stuck in my ways My libido won't blaze My mojo betrays Got a glaze in my gaze Got nuthin' to praise Hope it's only a phase Or just one of those days...

We've all had " one of these days". Look on the bright side; a great write came out of your "haze". Lay

These days you describe sound much like mine, Tim. Very touching poem. It was really nice to hear from you. Tried to call, but had the wrong number. Perhaps you are back in Louisianna now. Take care and let me know how you are. I've been sick and haven't been online very often. Feel like a Key West charter-fishing trip (three days)? Love, Carolyn

Somehow with all the things not going your way you manage to make me chuckle and I sincerely hope it is just one of those days :) enjoyed this :) Wilma

Excellent write. Very simple yet says so much. Your title caught my attention. It's a great song by Warren Devon. Keep writing. Blessings, Rhonda
