Caren Krutsinger Poet Free verse

She Sounded Thrilled To Be Jobless

My friend quit her teaching job 
In January 
This is almost March
I had no idea until today 
That she is jobless. 
She sounds thrilled 
About not working 
But what about money? 
I wonder. 
Knowing now 
She must 
Not need it.

Ifeanyichukwu Dominion Anyabolu February 28, 2019 at 5:07 AM Am also thrilled that she sound thrilled about not working?????? Caren Krutsinger February 28, 2019 at 11:25 AM I have to admit that sometimes when the stress goes away, the money means a lot less while the "self soothing" takes a front seat.
