Back in (the) Black

Dear ROTH IRA,
Thank you for turning profits
because I am poor.


I've been waiting to recoup my losses from this winter for a while, and after a few weeks of being right on the bubble finally crossed into the black with a profit of $0.80. At this rate I'll be able to retire at the ripe old age of 364.

Unemployment

Writing is quite hard
with unemployment looming.
Give me a job, please.
