Never been
On Easy
Street
Eke existence
Week to
Week

Leaning
Up against this
Wall
Wishing to again
Stand
Tall

Spirit broken
Resolve
Weak
Nourished solely
By
Defeat

Bedraggled, dirty
Down on
Luck
Needs eclipse a
Few spare
Bucks

Eyes diverted
From my
Gaze
Locked up
In this purple
Haze

Rejected disciple of
The
Whole
Relegated
To Black
Hole

The secrets lie there
Within
Reach
Perhaps today I’ll
Find my
Feet

Thanks go out to buddy71 who graciously agreed to allow me to
