Unemplyoment Blues

Here I sit
        in the room
 I have recently fixed 
up
 I hope the 
game 
which I have been playing
moves me into something productive
The sorrow
    which was known 
to me
      for many years
has come back into 
     my consciousness
Yes, I've got the 
   unemployment blues
