Submitting a Notice

i am tired of this piling up
ready for a baring, a stripping down
ready to release my time from
this striving slavery to money
and give it to creativity
to the music and art of life
to people
i feel an urgency bordering on panic
when i look back at the hours spent in the service of income
the worry, the devotion
upholding something meant to uphold me
i survey the work of my hands
and mourn how few are the lasting things i have gathered
i am ready to release myself to the building of the eternal
and money is welcome to join me in this endeavor
but on my terms
