Rolling Stone


Think about it for a while.
The effects of history
makes a three-sided hole
where the money is. Living
in useful terror [for hours rather
than centuries], look into
a mirror frequently. Stare
at pretty things, the bucolic void,
and have a wet dream
as eternity fails to go by.
And then it is time to go.
Always time to go.
