We ponder on this Day 13 of National Poetry Month…
Deposits and Withdrawals
Life’s deposits and withdrawals written down
within the universe’s ledger, red and black
Little columns filling, filling, like to drown
Life’s deposits and withdrawals written down
Register of conduct, of every smile and frown,
extending rows upon rows, stack upon stack
Life’s deposits and withdrawals written down
within the universe’s ledger, red and black
Be Afraid of the Dark
