Conduit – 24th December 2021

You’re just a filter for fine foods and wine
You got a hold of it and say “it’s mine”
Consumers of more, you’ve got it all
And it’s lonely at the top of the fall
An empty vessel, a temporary fill
Sieved away and now it’s empty still
If you hold too long it becomes a block
Account your life by taking stock
