The Successful Economist
The Successful Economist
Intermittent incidents flash across my screen
Faces, places, of where and what I have been.
Did I really do all those things
A far false memory that springs
From chasms in my brain
Hazy lazy clouds of pain
Anguish of a distant happy now gone
A faded contest of life I have not won
Who ran with me are no more
A fleeting step of lost encore
And yet I go on with triumph past
To walk one more path
It is the last.
