Can I do better? I think
For probably the hundredth time in one night.
Why don’t I get a normal fucking job
That I go to between 9 and 5?
Wasn’t that what I got my degree education for?
I find myself sighing as another car passes
Without stopping for a sandwich
And two cans of Red Bull.
Am I wasting my life? I think
Biting my nails and scrolling through Twitter.
I think that I’ll start looking
For that elusive career
Just as soon I’ve slept.
I don’t make good decisions
At this time of night.

You will have to remind me of what you do…

I’m currently doing nights at a petrol station although I’m now foraying into the world of teaching!

Good luck with the teaching path, very rewarding and something I’d like to follow at some point in my life.

I think that you should be a full-time writer 😊

Oh, in a dream world……

Your writing is a joy to read, full of insight and compassion. I hope you can make it happen.
