FACING THE BOMB

 

So now

it’s Sunday night

and facing

the inevitable Monday

 

It’s a bitter pill

and it fills me

with dread.

 

Weekend come

and gone crashing 

to a screeching halt

before we see it

 

work week ahead

painting its usual inanity

of senseless endeavor

 

and it keeps going

this wondrous society

in which we live

 

I don’t know about you

but the bomb

is beginning to look better

each and every day

 

and screwed up as we are

it’s really only just

a matter of time.
