Homes On Our Backs & The Loss Of Jobs In The Real Estate ' Field '.....Bri's Thoughts Poem by Bri Edwards

At this time of upheaval at our 'home', a house on a SC hillside,
where my 4th wife and I, for less than two years, now do reside,
I sit at her computer, my fingers poised over the keyboard's keys,
with summer shorts on and no shirt, exposing my chest and knees.

[ Oops! I got to the ending and realized I'd not yet told to YOU....
that my wife, AGAIN, wants to move! It's nearly making me 'blue'. ]

I'm 'not too happy', having now moved 3 times in less than 16 years.
It bugs/bothers me, if you want to know the truth, but not yet 'to tears'.
If real estate agents have skill, time, and luck they can earn a 'bundle',
a LOT of money, 'helping' others, from one home to another trundle **.

Sooo, why not carry one's home on one's back? There'd be less to pack! !
Like snails (with shell homes) we'd 'live off the land' ***, on grasses snack.
Ok! Maybe to try to stay out of trouble we'd have to rent a spot to settle,
for an hour, a day, a week, or longer, maybe even to set up a cooking kettle.

But it would STILL be 'easier' for some and more affordable for many! ! ! !
