Tonight's Poet Corner: Introspection

It is same old, same old in Belindaville. Still looking for work, still writing, still loving, still seeing friends. I got to rekindle some old ties and get some interviews and move forward in regards to some career strategies. I can't exactly get more specific than that. My anxiety's definitely lessened, and my writing has progressed. I am one episode away from finishing my second mini-series; now it's just a matter of actually getting my work produced. Wish me luck. I just got back from a fun party for some coworkers, and now I needs the sleeps. G'night, everyone, and have a great weekend.

"My father," I replied, "was a train conductor for years before cuts cost him his job. He tried everything, but no one wanted to hire him. Not at his age, not with his health problems. Now you're telling me my father deserves to be poor because of circumstances he could not control. Tell me, should your vast bank account shrink to nothing and you're starving on the street, should I just tell you you deserve it and go on my merry way?"
