¥$£

we all know it.

we all have differing amounts of it.

we’re all doing the same cha cha cha!

we’re walkin through a waterfall, and we all at grab the same things

on the other side

we reach for each other and hold our arms up like victors

as our horses bleed

the horses being wednesday and saturday

they are the times we have left of our beds needing many more hours

with our loved ones

and knowing that the street is not as us

yet, unable to stop moving

we get one snap in the eye of it all to say it all-

and hell

maybe that helps

maybe the heaped stimulus of work has it’s time now

to give us that hammer we need

to know that our lives are numbered by irriversible clocks

that untwine in the furtherness of how we will be

so for now

we are given an untidy space, with a number

to say what we mean

before

we’re driven away.
