Corporate Star of David
Panhandling with a gun
Beer coozie pick guard
Glass tiger in the window

We take refuge in black beans
Miso fish soup
Cushions on floors
Truck stop unicorns

Technique, technique
A guy down the hall screaming
It’s my Birthday! It’s my Birthday!
It’s a little scary
But not really scary 

There’s always something
Thing buzz and chirp
Something clicks on
Something burns out

You control the pace
You can change the lightbulb
All by yourself
