Any number of things
have slipped through.
I’m sure we share
the litany.
Love and riches
in varying
amounts
though
trying to quantify
love
is a
fool’s game.
Opportunities – Galore.
Our own lives
as we work
dead-end jobs
for
rotten pay.
And it’s funny
the older you get
the more tangible
the slip
and your life
feels like
water
passing through
your fingers
and
swirling
down
the fucking
d
r
a
i
n
Spare us, oh Lord.
