easy call


life being as predictable as it is


dreams will wilt in the mind

desire will dry out like a desert

amends will fix nothing

(the pieces having formed new wholes)


and as mercy will be weak as a weed

and love disappear like snow in the sun

and the only abundance will be unforgiveness


betting on all of these will not undo

the tiny surprises can could be an upset


it's all an easy call


and never beats any odds

especially the ones you lay....
