Worship, III

The Ego

Woman,
I worship the coin.
I will worship you,
when I can afford to.

And I hear you.
Something about I don’t need to
Something about listening to you
Something about knowing what you
want.

I can hear you,
and nothing else.

But woman!
I worship the coin.
A sponge will worship you,
When it can afford to.
