Crisis

I’ve drunk cheap Scotch,
I’ve had bad food.
I’ve been insulted
By people who were rude.

It just made me stronger.
These problems that I met.
But then I went sailing,
And lost the Internet.

That one hurt.
A lot.

Author: Blind John Ellsworth

Blind John Ellsworth (1960- ), a (questionable) poet and sometimes Texas bluesman. He has recorded one spoken-word album (thankfully unreleased), since he is still trying to learn to play guitar. (Lack of musical skills is what makes him a poet and not a lyricist. Plus, he can’t write music.)
