blood is a sticky business

i go get the bail
money.

all of it in large bills.

i look over my shoulder for muggers
and ex wives.

it will be a long day.
courthouse
to jail

do not pass go, around and around.
stand on your head,

touch your nose. repeat after
me this solemn oath.

the lives
of others

are a part of yours,
for better or worse,

blood is a sticky business.
it's how the story goes.
