Walkin’ Black Hole
by Richard Tornello
 
I don’t have no money 
It seems to disappear 
My debit card is empty  
it’s cause of you my dear. 
The physics of this are beyond me  
the logic’s torn asunder. 
You’re like a walking black hole 
My very own singularity. 
The only lightness I perceive, 
is the mass of my empty wallet. 
You’re like a walkin’ black hole. 
No one else do I have. 
No light will I perceive. 
You’re a walkin' talking black hole. 
No event on Any horizon 
will I participate. 
Cause… 
It all evaporates. 
I don’t have any money. 
It just disappears. 
All for you to take. 
You’re a walkin’ black hole. 
It’s here and not here. 
Just like that cat! 
I look at my account  
And before my eyes 
it collapses to a non zero amount! 
And not a clue. 
My bank account is empty  
and  
it’s all because of you. 
You’re a walking black hole. 
For all my cash. 
All the atoms of which 
A non-local transaction. 
All my cash 
just seem to smash. 
In a flash. 
All my cash!
