Horror Of Connection

(Strange Tales #4)

I have a horror of connection, pro and con.
I guess I’m pretty often miserable for little reason
Or mistaken and need correction like a dog on a lead.
Whether I ever find the time to show the price of it or not,
I wonder what kind of time and money it will require
When I finally have to pay the bill?

It’s more than I can negotiate, defray, or dispel
Most times, this honor of connection we bestow.
No one who knows can tell,
Though markers on the graves I’ve dug
Suggest to me the cost is high
Even if you die in debt.
