Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart Poet I do not know?

Tokens

And we have become
so cool     so   cool
collectible tokens

token 
bike courier
popping up everywhere
selling pills
selling time
ambiance
reality
through the TV screen
strategic
comedic relief
token
character conflict

bike courier heroes
saving the world

and can we admit
we are so cool
when we feel it
know it to be true
no more just 
a job exists
we will always be
just
the messenger

Jeff Connelly December 11, 2019 at 7:51 AM Maureen you will never just be a messenger. The meaning of your words have me peddling faster then a courier pigeon trying to spread your words. Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart December 11, 2019 at 8:35 AM And suddenly, it's a lifetime ago. I have my eye on a handsome pigeon, an Old Dutch Capouchine. So tempted. I'd name him Elton. Thank you Jeff!
