Not as Good as the Previous Poem

Life is meandering and stupid

Let’s get to the fucking punchline already

Let’s laugh at everyone else

and pretend none of the pretention applies to us

Let’s point and stare at all the idiots

Let’s be above them

Let’s ruin our days, years, lives

and never know what for

or why or how come

Let’s do this because we have been patiently waiting for the funny part of the joke like cattle going to the slaughter.

    I assume you’re chatting with the voices within and not to me because I’d very much not enjoy being slaughtered.

    That’s just the thing, dear Bryan: we always think there’s something more waiting for us. What if there’s not? Or what if it’s not a happy ending? What if the punchline is simply death?

    Bindo: Thank you!
