As long as I can remember,
they struck me down with lies.
Love and the good life
have eluded me every time.
Keep blacking out in my mind’s eye.
Got nothing left to hide.
Got no more hope.
Got nowhere to go.
Hit with too many dream TKOs.

You’ve got low prices
they’ve got big profits
and I’m left with empty pockets
and the Walmart blues
Got no union
Got no say in anything
Work all night and day
for little or no pay
Got the #Walmart blues

Desperation gone to seed
exploding into heartbreaking scenes.
We’re all haunted by that dream lost look.
Casualties of our dreams of Hollywood.
#booksky #poetry #books #theHollywoodHomeless
What really matters in the end
is all the time you squandered
trying to impress yourself and others.
Do you want to spend your last breath
choking on dollar bills?
You’d sell everything you own
for a little more time.
#booksky #poetry #books #theHollywoodHomeless
Got nothing to show.
Down without a count
as my heartbreaks mount.
Living a dead-end life
I never wanted to know.
Never saw life’s latest blow.
Struck by another dream TKO.

Watching the sun go down at Santa Monica beach.
With each sunset your dreams seem more out of reach.
Left wondering how you lost everything
in the land of dreams.
You’ve got that dream lost look.
Another casualty of Hollywood.

Feeling like another sucker that has been took.
Yours is a familiar heartbreaking story.
Another failed bid for glory.
You see that dream lost look everywhere
from the fancy Hollywood bars to Santa Monica Boulevard’s darkest corners.

You may be a politician,
or even the president.
You may be a rock star.
or even a movie star.
Doesn’t matter who you are.
One day you’re going to fall.
One day you’re going to crawl.
Remember stars fall from the sky.
You forgot the laws of gravity
