friday's lament

some days are more satisfying than others.
it's a good thing i've got more than one chance to get it right:
don't worry, there's no danger that i'll forget i'm poor and hungry,
i won't forget the roof over my head could cave in at any moment,
and i won't forget that the slightest mishap could fuck my world wide open.
no i won't forget any of it.
awareness is everything these days.

no i don't know what i'm going to do tomorrow.
except keep on keepin' on.
i really don't know how to do anything else.
and i don't dare lie down.
i may never get up again.
