Edit Lament  by Chris Keys


I have no job

I have no life

I live for my book

I may lose my wife

I stay up all night thinking words

I struggle all day

Sleeping with crowing birds

I write and rewrite

Each time

I’m filled with delight

Each time

I’m filled with dread

I’m beginning to believe

I’ll finish a day after I’m dead.
