Chasing Away The Blues

When the blues are closing in
it seems that I just can't win
there's no place to go, nothing to do
no money to spend, no close kin
I can't seem to hold up my chin
I go to Starlite and post poetry for you
The blues then quit chasing me
the puter has taken me away you see
I can drift into a fantasy world
imagining I am any place I want to be
traveling to places from the blues I flee
until back to reality I am hurled
I enjoy chasing away the blues
living for awhile in other people's shoes
closing my mind to my problems and woes
listening to others thoughts and views
sharing with friends whom I choose
as I loose the blues and gain repose
