Unemployed and Homeless: A Love Note

How can I be unemployed and homeless?  Blame it on Helen.

My best use is to appreciate one or two people well, and when she died this spring of cancer, I became unemployed.    

"What does home mean to me?" a friend asked.   
When Helen stirs awake and turns towards me, she tucks her head under my chin, casts a leg over and drift back to sleep in my arms.  That's home and since she gave up the ghost, I've been homeless too"
