tearing plastic; flipping pages;
check; eye-slide; cross-check;
wrap up; filling little squares — 
crowded desperately around each other;

busy-ness drives these final days — 
counting down; summing up;
money-grab; wealth spread selectively;
smile and click; check and slash and rip;

; ; ; ; ; ; — ; — ; ; ; ; ; ;

Tell me an old story, friend, one I’ve heard a thousand times before with the same details, same pauses, rises and falls as always and friend, when you finish, just tell it again.
