cylindrical lines

These cylindrical lines of poignant seconds
I don't want to donate my today to my tomorrow.
I would rather drain than invest a surmountable sum
to afford my future.

Some of us are just so blissfully good at this.
Good at this trade.
It’s like being a stick figure
in the second box of a three box comic strip
not knowing if the author is still alive
to complete the last strip.
Oh! But what if I have to compose that last thought bubble myself

some of you are so blissfully good at this.
You ignorant tyrants
