Money –
that vital ingredient –
threatens to rebuke us,
these haphazard habits
equating to negligence.
Investments –
retirement’s foundation –
falter, then plunge,
a mini crisis hitting
too close to home.
Change –
prodded by re-evaluation –
commands control,
scoffs at ideal’s naiveté,
imperfection highlighted.
