it's about money

it's not
about money, but it is
about
money.
day
one, day of death, all
the in between.
will there be enough?
enough
to pay
each bill, to clothe
and feed.
will the lights stay on?
will the bar be open,
the cake wide
and high
as we say our vows.
what is the count of our
threads?
and in the end,
will it be
gold or wood
that they'll lay us
in,
before we're gone,
before
the last prayer is said.
