Why I don't post daily.

Folks ask it a lot.
Why don't you post daily?
You have no job interference,
no wife, no kids disturbing
your writing as you sit
daily at your precious computer.

I have only one answer.
I have no home either,
nor a steady revenue sources
and meals are scavenged regularly.
So you tell me how
to write while out panhandling.

They don't see that bit
about me really being homeless
and how it's no way
a gravy train ride daily
as some make it out.
Nor is sleeping under stars.

Look, like all of you
I have issues to handle.
Food, smokes, where's my coffee?
Heck, don't forget the hike
from campsite to the library,
which is over five miles.

So ten mile hikes daily
under a load that includes
almost everything I still own
with water, food and such.
Try it, walk that path.
You might lose some weight.
     And I may try posting more often.
