A Silver Dollar In a Penny Pond

"A SILVER DOLLAR IN A PENNY POND"


they say life can be exquisite. 
they say life can be a sensation. 
they say life can be otherworldly.
when I woke up this morning, 
I heard the bitch upstairs. 
she was screaming, engaging 
in every problem she could 
create.
her boyfriend asked her repeatedly  
to keep it down.
she screams that much more.
it's 7:33 in the morning.

I on the other hand woke up alone. 
I don't have to hear that shit.
exquisite
sensational or
otherworldly
life can be many things.
mine at the moment in this bed,

magical.
