I’m depressed
’cause I have
White People Problems
Depressed is our word for the blues
But it don’t have 12 bars
and it ain’t in B flat
Blame it all on the blacks
and the Jews

We all have our own brand of depression I guess. Hope the blues aren’t plaguing you as much now. On a completely different note and as inappropriate as it sounds, we ought to make a list comparing first world problems and third world miseries, I have a feeling it would be darkly funny. 😀
My feeble attempt at irony, although I did feel down at the time. There are probably whole websites devoted to lists of WPP. Visually the poem almost took the shape of a ball, which wasn’t intentional, but fitting. I didn’t mean to minimize the affects of depression or loneliness. The Chris Cornell suicide painfully reminded everyone that age, race, wealth, fame or social status doesn’t always insulate us from emotional turmoil.
Everyone has their own version of hell playing in their head, the words we choose can never fully convey the intensity of it. So no assumptions there. And I understand what you mean, just when you get complacent wham! Rude awakening out of nowhere, episodes like these really compel you to think if in the end the struggle for a glorious life is worth the pain.
Now I am taking you seriously.
No you’re not Mister Poison. Which makes me think, why poison??
Idea for next post…thanks.
Happy to help in ways I cannot fathom, always. 😀
Speaking of usernames…
I know, not having delivery available from the corner café versus not having clean drinking water.
Oh you take me way too seriously. 🙂
Never
It’s always someone else’s fault, isn’t it? 😉
Chin up, dude, it’s Saturday!
And gear up for season III of Cavs-GSW in a fortnight!
Now I’m depressed for real. Why didn’t Lebron come to the Knicks?
