Naive and Random Assumptions
naïve & random assumptions
came crashing into the apartment in
the early morn & when ya did ya
thought that anything that got smashed
would be easy to pick up or sweep up
or chances are (more likely) that the
fact is you never thought about the
repercussions of your smashing into
the apartment in the early morn at all.
came into said person’s life in the early
eve like the proverbial bat outta that
fictional land of perpetual punishment
that all the crazy crazy christians hold
so dear in their hands tryin’ to scare
the rest of us into submission & when
ya did ya thought it would be an easy
one, in & out quick like a bunny, just
like a convenient store robbery out in
the sticks---****, ya thought you wouldn’t
even need to wear a mask.
came stomping out of said apartment
after breaking said person’s heart
thinking that the walk to the care would
be quick & the getaway would be simpler
than highway robbery (wherever this
highway is that robberies are in fact oh so
simple), and just within reach, the car door
was just within reach, right before that
pesky blunt object
gripped in the hands of said newly terrified,
angry, broken apart &
psychotic ex-important person,
now comes crashing down on the back
of your head,
smushing all your brains out onto the
asphalt
like chunky peanut butter being spread
on newly toasted
bread.
