The Quarter


The Quarter

Often outmatched with tokens,
my brother could play Ms. Pacman
for hours on one quarter, but now
he's using them for laundry,
the legendary, universal coin
bigger than the rest, higher in the air
when you call it, either Heads or Tails,
the change you get back even if you
could cash in all your dreams,
save in a big jar, and get a cart at Aldi's.

I'm more rational today

 just a combination of many things, social media, no free speech, after all the time I've spent, Phil's diagnosis, my fight for justice inching on 30 years of fighting, and seeing no light at the end of tunnel, thinking I'm doing it all myself, and can't get a simple reply of encouragement. plus I do everything to access, and getting burnt out so often, they made fun of me about that too, when so many people are like me.  you think you got me figured out, think again! I've decided to stay on my blog, and keep Messenger, and the internet, but no social media posts anymore, but I haven't deleted any account.
