We Forget To Collect Life

the eternal board is flashing
white letters on dark screen
destinations departures arrivals
scheduled greens
expected reds
delayed blues
frisking ffor the security of the
masses
collect your valuables he said
we forget though
life is the most valuable
we forget to collect
