the coming grind

To the gallows

With the fellows

That the model have opposed

From the reaches

Of the preachers

disengaged from what they chose

and the many happy merry tunes

and syllables are kind

as the meat is made to gleefully

accept the coming grind

there are Anger issues

Paper tissues

Take them if you please

to fulfill a need

and cook up storms

in tiny cups of tea

no economist

is fond of this

and yet they won’t protest

as they lay me dead

to get their rest

the money cuts the check

Previous
Previous

losing by the minute

Next
Next

I carve a smile
