 A New Woman




Written at 25 years old 
I found this poem i wrote when i just moved out and it was a nightmare ha ha 

Gas running away 
Power outage 
Boiler on the blink 
Cooking is a no go 
Nor is a bathe 
Just stuck in an ice cage in the middle of March 
UK ain't OK 
Frozen like the movie 
Waiting for the gas man 
Waiting on an engineer 
Waiting on a plumber 
Independence is a pain in the ass 
Though its kinda cool in the back of your mind 
studying away partially dreaming of living alone 
Sat alone in your own room wishing for space
Only now i know it ain't all its cracked up to be 
Uh oh 
Waiting on the repair man and some deliveries 
Bin man say little lady don't mix the plastics 
Waiting for the next fortnight collection 
Bin man say little lady this is heavy 
Out of milk and out of bread
Scraping the barrel for a bite to eat 
Epileptics are not treated fair for insurance on good jobs 
Though i am articulate and perfect for the job
Boss man evil say the company ain't insuring an epileptic
Mama say go on welfare, but the money ain't even enough to survive 
Frozen special offers even the bread 
Long life milk was more yuck than yummy 
No luxuries and no holidays i can imagine 
Damn it gotta top up the power meter 
3 am and freezing go catch the cab before the seizure 
I can't pay back some debts on time 
Late payment fees on some bills 
Life alone kinda sucks and i don't think Twilight enjoys it either
Mama say your cat came home 
One problem creeps up after the next 
I often wondered how big adulthood problems were 
Until Suddenly it HIT ME 
Right in the midst of my face
