Blank Cheque

I left a blank cheque in the drawer.

Pick it up, use your ink and fill

The zeroes in. But, remember I filled

The ones and the twos when I was there.

Its a life of strange zeroes and blanks,

The nothing makes it all and the primes 

Just crumble along the way.But, remember

I filled the ones and the twos when I was there.

When the shroud covers the limbs and the

Soul consecrated, you will be there to 

Throw the roses in the grave. But, remember

Who filled the ones and the twos when I was there.

The shots and the shoots, the rhythm and the blues

All come together in this short flash of a life.

Just a flash and then your face and then... Will you

Remember who filled the ones and the twos when I was there?
