redrose's blog: "Rosa del Mar"

Saving Crumbs

It's almost too much to bear when you admit to yourself that it's come to this. You haven't sold out, but, then, what's there to offer? You're glad for small things: 29 and more Chinaski books, 4 cats in and 3 out, a man who not only works but cooks and shops and has the touch that sends you spinning. You sit outside on a plastic chair--cement patio below your feet, Mexican country music audible from a neighbor's trailer, a few cicadas awakening to shake the air--and think you really need those jobs you've applied for. Lot rent, satellite, gas, electric, phone, internet, car insurance, mobile home insurance, cat food, credit cards keep you seeking employment in something, anything, as long as you don't have to kill yourself too much. As it is you feel yourself checking out a cell, a hair, a crazy thought at a time. You think you can save small scraps of yourself in words, but it's no use. They're only crumbs after all and the words that come are worse than crummy.
