Where has all the money gone? - April 1st 2009


from the ABC set Napowrimo 2009

You always find it
the last place you look

It's not in the bank
or in anyone's wallet

It's not beneath the click
of the briefcase that follows
the cracked combination

It's not under the bed
or in the bed

Close your eyes and concentrate
as hard as you can

Think about some numbers
let them climb into your soul.
That's right. Now the money's there.

And you're on the money here.

The funny thing about imaginary money is that it can reappear just as quickly as it vanished.
