Abacus Rex

Keeping it even
Blending the seasons
Extending the weekend
Fit to be branded quality time

Stuck in the middle
Between lifeblood and life

As we look East (It's all the same)
And strain to see (The fruits of labor)
Make believe (Or hedge a bet that)
There will be a Talking Dog this time next year

We're stacking the paper (Put it off)
We'll get to it later (Or pay the cost of doing biz)
It's the same equation as I used in school

Snout in a muzzle
Atrophied muscles
This isn't a puzzle
There is no solution to reapply

Try as we might
To keep fires alight

I'll never seed this Garden of Eden
I'm over the hump

Crippling distance between
Oceans divide the mean

In truth I doubt that I can toe the line
Collapsing arches lose support in time
It's meaningless to quantify the hidden cost of being creative
So I won't
