my dreams
are simple enough.
perhaps
that’s the problem.
suppose
i got greedy
and i meant it.
what if
i gave
another 10 years
of hard-ass work,
whatever it was?
just
to make money
just
to get a life
that made
non-simple
dreams come true.
what if
i was able to do
that
and even survive?
jesus.
what kind of
awful dream
would that be?
