Unemployment

You can’t be serious! Is this really it? Can this letter I received from you be legit? I’m at a loss for words, have a bit of an attitude as well, is this a premonition of life in hell? Is the author the person that conducts reviews? Is this the reason why Diana Ross played the role in “Lady Sings the Blues?" The truth of the matter is you haven’t provided any help, the very thought of the check you sent me makes me want to yelp! $575 dollars for a family of 5 – I’m grateful, but really how am I suppose to survive? With chap lips and ashy feet I am filled with doubt – my tongue is even stuck to the roof of my mouth – I am unable to express myself by means of verbal release – Since I’ve lost my job I have been walking the street – looking for work, but to no avail – I dismiss thoughts of crime and burglary cause that would send me to jail - With a bus pass I walk down the street, I even stopped driving my car - gas prices are causing me to utilize my feet – I now consider you my enemy, though you really do not exist – so I look up to the sky and I shake my fist – AT YOU – wherever you are……is now the appropriate time for me to wish upon a star? Answer me why don’t you – stop hiding behind this check – why don’t you just increase – that would allow me to put this all to rest. I thought getting to know you would bring some closure – but ever since I met you I can’t keep my composure – UNEMPLOYMENT, yeah that’s your name – please be gone….you have brought me nothing but shame!

May your difficuly be turned into VICTORY!!
