NaPo’ 20 - Day 3 - Rhymezone

IT’S HAPPENING ALL AROUND YOU AND I’M SORRY

Enter balmy sleep:
replete with 1’s and 0’s
Cling for dear strife

Can you feel its heartbeat?
Places hand on palimpsest receipt
This is everything

Wake: coffee sleeve on to-go cup
missing. Chalked up to
A shit start

Boss says:
capital loss can’t be had
But your job

Draws circles, heptagons
yells figures through megaphone
Boss is a cunt

Who belongs in a morgue
or is it you?
Self-doubt is a cunt

Lattice of spirit, waived
marital status to self:
Widowed

Searches pneuma pile
one must be yours
Selects magenta blazer

As in party favor, blenches at
cursory decision-making process
Time to go home 

Public domain looks like
shadowy tile, on repeat
Slips on magenta blazer 

Candy cane finger joy
Better than when you were five
Toys RRRRRRRRR Us

Lights out. Enter balmy sleep
Places hand on palimpsest grief
This is everything
