Dear John Letter

'Dear John' it says, ' I must depart. I just can't live like this. I just won't listen to my heart, It's just the money that I miss. It's great that you're a poet, And you write very well. But I need money and you know it, I know that you can tell. The starving poet is a gig, I don't find very groovy. And it's just something I don't dig, I need money don't you see. So if you must suffer for your art, You'll do it without me. I hope this doesn't break your heart, But I need to be free. So goodbye John, it has been fun, Up to a point that is. I could debate if you're the one, But it's the money that I miss.' 9/17/11 Alton Texas
