I Am The Mighty Dollar
I come in many forms, of course. Pardon my wide grin but my master tells me that I'm the cream of his crop when it comes to deals with dwellers at the top. I am the perfect tool that'll never rust or be shucked aside because I am trust, ever-changing, rearranging, yet to be defeated, thanks for the applause — you may be seated.

Expectant
I remember the first year we tried. It was daunting but we were untouchable, outshining gold. Life was prime and existence was ripe with favor and chances. It's been 20 years since the first try. But our dream of you never died. Every corner we turned, everywhere we looked you belonged to someone else. We thought we'd had you two years before but you slipped away and failure mocked us again. On cue, a divine voice would assure us in the interim, "You will overcome. There will be a successful again."

Clipped, Gypped Not Whipped
A bird with clipped wings, she suffocates while placating the nest. She wants to snatch a fish tale and drop it into a pool of quicksand. That won’t bring her wings back but it will lessen an underdeveloped load. She dares not undo her last song. So her plight for flight continues until that merciful deliverance. Why’s it taking so long?
