Usury Poem by Kyle Schlicher

Usury



today
i borrowed from yesterday

i promised
to pay it back
just
as soon as possible

today
i sat here by myself
while
the rest of the world
was going
totally
crazy

i needed something
from
the past

only then
would i be free

what is lost
becomes
a memory

today
i paid yesterday back

i owe tomorrow
nothing
