about

Sometimes it feels like we are all just watching progress bars, counters, and gauges. For what?

lyrics

Pounds on the scale climbing
Macros and calories
Cholesterol, fat, PSA,
A1C

Blood cells red and white serum
Pressure in my veins
Diopter for astigmatic eyes
Ear frequencies sustain

Number on number
Number and number

The mortgage on the house compounds
Therapy, private schools
Cable, food, trash, and power,
Clothing and shoes

Water and gas in the tank
The coffee every day
The London Interbank Overnight Rate

Number on number
Number and number

Handfuls of seconds
Slowly creeping past
Hours and decisions
Rushing by so fast

About 14,000 days
Probable typical when
A couple of decades
or tomorrow could be the end

Gigabytes remaining
Years remaining
Days remaining
Seconds remaining
