Wondering

Wondering without end
without money
without food
children in hyper
wife murmuring
no job
no medical insurance
school unfinished
falling asleep studying
waking up during the night
behind in child support
the gas unpaid
the car unpaid
the brakes in metal
the oil three times over
the stomach wanting to explode
where will the rent come from
the heart with a hollow as a tree
what will become of my family and me …
