Money Woes

Do I accept my incompetence

at managing my budget?

My financial status is a sorry sight.

Do I give in to the temptation

of asking for help?

Yet again?

Or do I tough it out and let my family suffer?

I learn from the courses,

but the lessons do not stick.

I am in need of an accountant

who will only let me have my “allowance”.

I think I am doomed!

Brown Envelope

It arrives on my desk.

Contents are a mystery.

Shall I push the envelope?

Move it aside?

Should I open it?

Is there something dreadful inside?

What if it is good news?

Who gave it to me?

What should I do?

I wonder if it is empty?

The joy of a prank?

Decision made.

I will be forever curious unless…

Injuries

They hurt.

They incapacitate.

They last.

They can be invisible.

Healing will come.

But only if you have

the support needed.

Doctors can diagnose an injury,

but it is the ones who nurse

you back to health

that matter the most!
