It’s the brink of a hot hot night
My eyes still burn in cold delight
Wanting sleep and needing good work
On a floor mattress with duress
Only comfort; fan which caress
I know many mouths do not see
Will grant interviews without fee
And try to my hard work now, shirk

I’m not sure about the subject matter, but the poetry, as always, works well. If there does come a day when we get paid to post here may you never have to work beyond that point.

True, theme is, while we sweat, future talkers don’t see and will talk smearing our names in future.

That’s always the risk we take when we put our words and thoughts out there for all to see.

Sylvester and Weezer send you Meows of Thanks. When I move into my own place this year maybe I will add to my feline family and name the new kitty Sebastian. I like that name.

I believe one day all our hard work and creativity as writers plus my photography will pay off financially and in all other ways. Who knows Oprah may resurrect her TV show just for us!! Africa and America 4ever!! We are the Queens of Poetry and Prose!! Your brave example has inspired me to put together my own poetry book. I have hired a SiStar to help me and my work of art should be out Fall 2015!! Thank you Dearest Queen of Ghana!
By the Way, my new bed arrived earlier this evening. Me and the cats are getting comfortable. This firm new bed is much better than the piece of junk I was sleeping on. Already my bed is starting to feel better. Feeling stronger and happier! ❤
