Yesterday’s Debts

I work today to pay yesterday’s debts
I pray for forgiveness too
Then draw in breaths to remind my body
What it’s like to feel goo d
I dribble the ball and pass it
I really want you to shoot
You need to know how to do this, I
Just need to survive this cruel
Adult brain
So full of debt
So full of hindlights beaming regret
On repayment
On forgiveness
Touchable things yet so distant
I feel like I can touch
The water bubbles rolling
Down those cheeks…

From
The people and the
Places
That I
Owe –
That’s where I go.

It’s like a had a hundred friends yesterday
Now I’m all alone.

To
The people and the
Places
That I
Owe –
You will know.

How much I always love you
Once the debtors fold.

Fart.
