homage to short circuit

poetry

just like johnny five
i feel that i’m alive
struck into being
by a bolt of lightning
constructed of metal
and feeling like a rental

and so I read
and so I feed
and so I drive
and so I thrive

but what is life
without a laser, a phaser, a taser

    i ask myself this same question almost every morning around 7:00… which is impressive because from 7:00-8:00 I dont allow myself to ask any sort of metaphysical questions.. those are reserved for 8:00-8:02. From 7:00-8:00 I only allow simple questions which may have very little bearing on my life.
    like, do I watch monday night football this week?
    if i eat another grilled cheese will i vomit this morning?

    but the mere fact that this falls into the simple and not metaphysical makes me think there is really something to it.
