Long Time Coming

long time coming
constipation still to be overcome
can it all sink in for a taste of forever
as i sink with joy and with glee

long time coming
words are slurred like
the want to murder an alarm clock 
may i touch the very hand that autographed
my size so elegantly and precisely

long time coming
i am a trampoline getting
phatter by the steady diet of junk time
can we just be like maintenance workers
and fix this wood paneled time machine every....single....day....
