Memorably,...

Commute.
Work.
Repeat.

Two hours of daylight between shifts.
One life slipping through fingers
calloused from climbing ladders
that only lead...

The living room,
Laughter clinging like a warm embrace,

Faces aglow from screens,

whether it is right to suffer 
the lingering stings of speculative moments

The Sodom and Gomorrah, vault,
the legends so long past,
Lots wife looked back, got turned to salt,
