cash it all in

the stock market
reminds me

of someone I used to know.

high one day,
low
the next.

all fun and games, and then
it's the end
of the world,

depressed.

the slightest breeze
sets it

off it any direction.
you think all is well,

then it tanks
and hits rock bottom.

it's just like her.
making you think it's time

to cash it all in.

but on a high day.
to get out while the gettings
good.
