Karma came to get you
charted course, snuck her way in, and settled down
squatting in your backyard, she's a fiend
whispering through your window
consequences are expensive, you know,
and she always collects her debt.
Karma took a calligraphy course over a summer
signing her name on carefully selected postcards
dedicated to her craft, sending stories of good fortune, she's a pen pal
wishing me well in perfect script
make up for lost time, you earned it,
and I know exactly what she means.
Karma does not mince words
she automates her tallies for efficiency,
but the followup is an art form
individualized, specific, precise, she has a system
everyone gets what they deserve,
and she makes sure of it.
