We Are Reborrowed!




ON MEMORY ---
Pain has nothing on us. 
We stand smiling
Spirit and bone
We stand free
We stand alone

We’re in tandem with time
And holding court with our wayward child
Even if it cries from that mortal pinch
It grows a halo from any wretched trial.


And so ON OUR MEMORY,
You can always take a stab
Because all your insults, and all your jokes
Dissolve in our cerebral life like smoke
Even if we constantly break our begging bowls



One feeble call,
with a flimsy cloud in hand

Archaic, unmoved...

WE ARE REBORROWED!



Will THE MUNDANE MINUTES MULTIPLIED BY THE CRUEL HOURS
Find us just being dropped
Into this moment?
Stay!
Go!
I don’t know.
This is a risk that we take.
WE ARE REBORROWED!
