If the days have come and gone
when your mattress was on the floor
with no frame
and no sheet
(it was hung over the window)
and you’ve moved beyond a place
where people draw on the microwave with markers
good luck on your journey
toward purchasing a horse
and riding it across the island
of your choosing.
If those days have not yet arrived
take caution
they move quickly
more so than you can predict
and should be savored while at hand
for soon you will be
pursuing said horse
and charting a map for said island
and those items cost.
Cost big.
