Bottom Line

"BOTT0m LINE”
Count it all lost; matter of fact.
Let the tares grow up with the wheat.
As though a zipper parting.
At its threshold, in Plainview.
Wolf pack growling carnivorously.
at the door, crouched to pounce;
calculated overrated: until dismissing
value runs its course.
Becomes dry ground wild weeds
chase, haste, wasted: as the ocean
carries song away, labor incoherent,
since attachment dwindles, dividends
on keepsake, save face; timekeeper,
Heirloom. This gateway neglects.
The yellow light now turns the interface red.
Investment equated to being antiquated
Blindsight, obligated; separated.
How they downsize and then collapse into space.
Only shredded memories on the surface,
Going, going, gone: skid mark alone the arms;
Echoes of Holocaust, song demise, corpse hinge in
The possession auction is in disarray.
To the highest bidder:
A fraction-loaded stench, relegated by a swivel mirror.
Misfortune dress-up is an advantage.
Vintage treasure, no long trash filthy rags.
The bottom line was its net cost.
