Finances
Eclectic acrobats swinging from desire to necessity like a child’s indecision,
This or that trinket, this or that water, food, shelter, or blanket,
Dollars of various denominations trickling out of pocket like the broken spigot, fumbling down the proverbial drain, or just onto the lawn off the pavement,
There is always some other arrangement, some obligatory bill like a warning
or advisory of a storm forever looming
just out of mind’s sight.
Trash becomes treasure,
becomes more than unused toys, play becomes time with others to satisfy the undeniable hunger of materialism reestablishing what matters,
money relinquishing it’s powers reluctantly
like the bully no one
is afraid of,
like the object it was never meant to be,
just another version of a life
one is never meant to see.
