Entertainment Tonight (from the lean years)

sick in my apartment

bent over my coffee

dealing with it

on the tube

there is a special

about actors

and their drug problems

my rent is due

in 3 days

and I am broke

2 final notices

in the mail

yesterday

one for the

electricity

and one for the

phone

I haven’t been

able to leave

my place for

a week

I have half a

check

coming in from my last

job

and a blown head gasket

in my car

I sit

here and listen

about

the

dangers

of

cocaine.
