Blank verses
by Matt Worley

The drift happens
after
about three in the afternoon

Is that tea time?

Everyone grab your personal tonic
its
healing time

If wine is medicinal
can health insurance
subsidize a couple bottles of the good
stuff?

Are rooters for the
losers
losers
themselves?

Wait wait wait
(wait)
but be ready when
the bell
rings

All will be blamed
on the one
not ready
not
the one holding
the gun

Boil
frustration
until a nice froth
develops
then let simmer for days
and it will become a
tasty
candy
elixir of rage

Keep doing
your job
until your job is noticed
only by the
absence
of it

Magic beans
are the source
of much
of the world's
gossip

Toot
toot
toot


Matt Worley
is a
horrible
poet
