It's over and done with
and I should give thanks
to the colonels of catastrophe
and those of lesser ranks,

each makes a small division
in this life that's not my own
and takes up board and lodgings
in this body, I call home.

But as the satellites keep telling me
I am GPS acquired
monitored and mounted on my
own glass shard of spires.

I only dive in deep to
extinguish constant fires that
would relinquish me of life,
hard earned though it may be
it would be easy for me to lose.
