One Word: Stall

all fall
down before the god
of time
wheels and deals
and promises
goals set
deadlines met by
furious motion going
absolutely not one place
that counts but
winds blowing
all knowing we can’t stop
rolling
stay on track
busy life
of strife
of the knife edge
balanced
don’t fall
don’t stall
running on and on
the bill comes due
we got nothin
but empty pockets
