choke job, stopped dead in my tracks, deer in headlights, truck barrelling
down the highway, open door, open window, do not pass go, do not collect
$200, go directly to jail, and stuck, unable to say the words, to ask the
questions, to state the obvious, unable, impotent, powerless, well, not
powerless, the ability is all there, the form and function, it's just the
choice, the will power, a question of how far, to stop thinking, to stop
questioning, or maybe too much questioning, too much thinking, or not
enough, and finding excuses, finding cause, finding fault in a seamless
block of marble, it's just a poor showing, it's just a sign of weakness,
it's a sign that the bank teller still won't get any business from me, no
cashing of checks, no withdrawals, no money, still, no money.
