Death by Ice Machine

The sound of iced cubes
dropping clink clank
into your glass
is driving me fucking crazy
as I try so desperately
to concentrate on an old re-run

The yadda yadda voices
and yelling soup Nazi
is no match for the clatter
of frozen H2O
popping and crackling
as the amber witch coats the squares

All I can hear is the serenity prayer
echoing through the inside
of my throbbing brain
and I watch in silence
as The ice machine
take’s your life.
