He sits at the table
with his best friends
Anger
Resentment
Hopelessness
and the Six O’clock News
wallowing in nightly
negativity
soaking in a bath
of boredom
marinating in misery
waiting for me
to turn him.

Marinating in Misery
Published by Rhonda Lee Richoux
I am retired from the public school system. I create magic wands and spells, write mediocre poetry and the occasional freelance magazine article; research local history and family genealogy; I’m an activist and keep in touch with friends, family and archenemies on Facebook, Twitter, What’s App and Word Press. I'm a Fiipina-Cajun troublemaker and trickster. I'm feeling as invincible as Keith Richards these days. Fuck is my favorite word. View more posts
