The boom
Began with a single
Sale
Upon the receipt of
Transaction
Came a flurry of action
Until my great aunt
Sold her house
For 1.5 millions dollars
A cardboard cutout
Has reached the top of the market
The boom
Began with a single
Sale
Upon the receipt of
Transaction
Came a flurry of action
Until my great aunt
Sold her house
For 1.5 millions dollars
A cardboard cutout
Has reached the top of the market
The goodnight show
Starts at 11:59
When the words
Come out jumbled
Most of the time
So another day
Another year
Another groove
In the gear
We must hold on to
Those we love
Not to hold back
But to hold up
In times of trouble
We lift the life in each other
To new heights together
So let’s be together in
This mess
We have created for
Each other
Sum it up with
Be word
Apathy
Maybe
Or
Continually
Rounded
Up in a moments time
So to start a day
A bew
I will try
In my lungs
Filled with air
I want to fill the air
Around me
With song
As I hope and believe
That music can heal
Us all
What would heaven send
On a day like today
When all seems to fail
Even the most simple
Tasks pull us apart
So send us something good
That we can rely on
For the future to be brighter
It was understandable
We both made mistakes
Offered our best
When we really pulled back
From each other
So it was a natural product
From two tense hearts
In sweet motion
Clashing with my own two hands
Making for a unusual day
Of insignificant
Progress and setback
With the sun over the Camelback Mountains
I wonder if I will progress
Or recess
In the days ahead
So these words
Today
Save me
From my own
Monotony
Friday hopes
Start with a longing
For a new way
Of thinking
Another round
Started the conversation
From the guess I was making
It didn’t take long
Until the whole thing
Came undone
And lay at my feet
Lost to my own
Fatalistic repeat
