Tag: frustrated writer

The poem entitled "Workday Blues" reads: "Dancing shadows on the window, as the morning sun streams in to an otherwise work-depressed office. 'Your salary is the bribe they pay you to forget your dreams.' Alas... I need the bribe. Passions don't pay bills. Dreams can’t buy food. Back to work…. Go to sleep, Little writer. Go to sleep. Perhaps time will be kinder Later in the day (or night)."
