Cash Customer

Weekly payments, cash payments
for the work performed, day by day
helping them and their family,
do what is right, funded by cash payments
no retainer, no bills; weekly pledging
honorable agreement, covenant together
trusting each other to be there, to do
the thing we promised
to live up to the bargain, sealed
by a handshake more than a contract
fulfilling what was promised
because we said we would
