Tease out the meaning of things.
Have all of this count
For something.
Make it your life’s work.
Look up from your book, your ledger,
Your slumber.
Messages are waiting.
The sun sets on the dock in five minutes,

Drop everything.
We are granted a finite amount
of absolutely
everything.
Listen for the unspoken.
Pop your collar.
Shoot your cuffs.
Know you were here.
