Too many people
need a name
for what they’ve got

Otherwise,
what is it?

There’s got to be something
good for whatever
this is

Once upon
a gridlock
dreary

All joy
halted

Seized
and stopped

No longer
sings
beautiful
sine-shaped
melody

Piqued
at odd angles
to harmony

This is what
I’ve got

Can you
cure it?

No matter the cost,
I’ll pay
