Hunger

1. i show up at stages

2. i tune and sound check

3. i play my songs

my admittedly depressing songs.

this is what i love.

this is what i have.

this is what i am.

and i'm always grateful 

that no matter how hard those three things get

because i'm lazy

because i'm tired 

because i'm broke 

because i'm busy

or heartbroken

or on the rag

or hungry

or sad

or bitter

or undressed

or sick

i still want to..

1. show up

2. tune up 

and

3. sing
