Poems
Sep 2013
Do you pay your bills (on time)?
Do you pay your bills (on time)?
Lunar and sun cycles overlap,
interest accumulates, faster than
human cells compounding,
atoms splitting.
time rules inexorable,
it's justice, ruthless,
so many dues to pay,
for clubs I didn't want to join.
do not deny,
I bought much of my own fate,
my heart, my eyes overwhelming
my worn down, common common sense.
even if I pay my bills on time,
time is the only winner,
and what I possess,
becomes a prison, possessing me.
