In a Nutshell

In the past 5 years I’ve:

Moved to NYC with only $3,000
and a suitcase Relocated
and re-acclimated
a 50-pound dog

Renovated
a sub-standard apartment
in a sub-standard neighborhood
Just to be dumped by a Partner of 12 years
for no reason

Worked
a “Devil Wears Prada” job
In order to qualify
for higher-level positions
Obtained said
higher-level positions, and

Worked said higher-level positions
until I b'come numb

Lost my mother
(however unpleasant that relationship might've been)

Then
after all that,

Started t'realize
m'work's
Just b'gun…
