than the dead of night?
You profess...

people take chances on advantageous circumstances,
grab it in a glance through vantage and see advances.

Risking it all
at the edge of the cliff-
edge of the water-
edge of life.
Debating,
replaying,
like the song stuck in your head

Then the watermark is never washed out of the phoney cheque,
And when you’re dead and gone there’ll be no one here to mourn ya

I look up from my desk and say, Good morning.
You flash a flirty smile, then look away.
I wink and doodle something in my notebook.
