jazz goes to college
marriages march into illusions
christmas stops when shopping ends
the year-long belief in credit and cards continuous
compliments from sellers of illusions
thus the Greek masters left their boys
and switched to procreational tasks
to divide properties
and make inheritances
of their properties
just as celibacy became a conduit
not for belief but for priests
to channel monies believably
each using money
as if money is not funny
yet in reality
it was sex and then no sex
that made all of them
very much money
