The Burden of Excess

April 1st 2008 07:39
Coins are in my pockets there
Gosh how I would love some air

The countless coins about which I have sung
Prevent more singing from my lung

These coins I’d counted over again
Give me no hint of oxygen

So in the ocean, the coral I join
As I’m weighed to the sand by pocketed coins
