the dreams a ream

my dad used to say that
just
 before 
he dove 
into any large body of water 



=======================================

 
 you never catch up to that dream 


" its stuck out there
    like the hot dog on a pole
           just 6 inches in front 
              of the poor jack asses nose "


==================================================
 corporate 
   retirement benefit systems 
         at least for their 
                        for wagery
               are on that same fuckin pole 

each year more geeps are seeing
                  the retire in style
                                   mirage disolve
                          into  a dear sap letter 
                                      from some chapter 11 judge
