My Place 2
Since life won't commit to me,
how can I commit to it?

In the Temple of Idling,
I know my place is right here,
not knowing my place.

Which is worse, the false claim,
the insincere commitment,
or the broken promise?

There is a temptation
to submit to the prettiest test,
suturing the structure.

I envy
only
the indolent dollar.
