on the upswing

on the plus side,
I haven't yet
had to resort
to eating rats
or roadkill,
as this life tries
to cause my
exsanguination;
not my tradition
of good home-cooked food,
but the Dollar Tree
is keeping me alive;
if only they carried
little bottles of
Hope,
things would really be
on the upswing.
