I was going to write about depression

but I got depressed just thinking about it

 

they say to write your way out of it

but after reading my own poetry

 

I am even more depressed

than when I started

 

depression is a state of mind

depression is a state of mine

 

I would continue but

I am heading for the tropics

 

the subject of my next poem

Tropical Depressions.
