Step or Stop

Shadowed lines on shining page
Numbers would swim off the edge
As in my mind
Without these boxes and borders
Finance is grinning
At this perfect treasure
Set before us
Will we take another step
Or stop
Again I'm wandering
Not really listening
Floating above tedium
Muffled voices
Struggling with why what how
I have a different why
Can't we dive
Heart first
