Afterlife In the Office
A girl stands at the entrance
of a cubicle that has been
assigned to me.
Her little breasts
are tight under her sweater.
She speaks:
“Are you cold?”
“Yes”
"It’s the white precision
that examines us,
the pristine.
Have you figured out
how to fit in yet?” She says.
“No, please tell me.
is there a password?
A special name tag?
I am sure the one they gave me
isn’t working.
Should I frown
as if concentrating on something?”
“Yes that might help”
“Am I dead yet?” I hear myself ask.
“Not quite yet. Your little cold cock
is still attracted to me.
When the supervisor comes,
then you will be dead.”
