ABYSS






I peer over the edge
into the abyss -
yet I count my change.

I count my change -
yet peer over the edge
into the abyss.

So... money does not grow on trees.
So... manna does not fall from heaven.
So... sing for your supper like everyone else.

Tree, grow me some money!
Heaven, throw me some manna!
Supper, sing thee for me!

This is my prayer today.




20.II.80
