Sunday Neurosis
Proles dread the impending dawn
Pointless toil awaits
Maintain the charade
Pretend your life has meaning
You're just worm fodder
Forty-five grim years
Of soul-crushing drudgery
Then comes the cancer
Super Gulp in hand
Waddling to the minivan
Judge Joe Brown at four
Bleak, freezing, sunless
The Yuletide is upon us
Does it have a chip?
Trashcans at the curb
Stuffed with the sad detritus
Of small meager lives
A truck's ground clearance
Is not an indicator
Of virility
