NaPoWriMo~27.04.12~ Amortized

Eyes wide
unbelieving
that they have accomplished
what they have set out to do.

Money spent
burned like last season's Yule log
up in smoke
committed
for the next 25 years
if they don't go broke first.

Locked in
amortized
sharing deeds
drawing lines
the first time buyer
so proud
so happy

Until the inevitable
buyer's remorse.
That for the first time
forced them to read
a contract already signed.
