Money is at the same time cold and harsh,
And also beautiful. It is beautiful Because it is cold and harsh and plain. It is one thing in life that you can count on To remain the same. You bend to its reality Or crash against its solid frame. Two plus two is four. It is the terrible truth That most men can never wrap their minds around. One day we will escape into a math that bends reality. But that new reality will require a forsaking of the old. Until then, we face the horror of a truth we can’t escape. And that truth is both terrible and wonderful Depending on whether we humble ourselves enough To slow down and know the numbers Or race on toward the doom That awaits all those Who won’t.
