But it’s really more than an investment

poetry

As another man in another life my
soul was up for grabs but
I got it back and now
It’s safe in a trust fund,
lock and key and all of that.

If I got the bank-man right
I’ll double my investment
in no time
(say a lifetime or so)
and that’s perfect, says I.

After all I’m not using it,
and since a lifetime is
exactly how long I plan to live,
I’d say things are working out
precisely.

As long as this bank don’t fail,
that is.

    Could’ve have said it better myself. And I mean that. Would’ve been terrible if I tried, so luckily for us you did it – and it’s about as pleasant as hearing the interest on your 401k is half a point higher than you thought.
