warped at sunrise, dead at dawn(Arnold Melleby, 10.20.2024)

 

he was a skinny ass lawyer

with a fat wallet

married to his high-school sweetheart

she hung herself in her push-up bra

they were huge, alright

her self esteem not


still working on his first billion

waking up one morning

to an awesome day

feeling

the eagle hasn`t landed yet

still with a boner

from last nights blue pills

in excess, as the norm

and not the exception


a ceramic soul

in a digital suicide

sick as a dog

pushing merchandise

digging into an Amercian pulp

gone to far


working all day

working all night

what else is left to share

apeart from the dreams

while asleep

and do it all over again

tomorrow


warped at sunrise

dead at dawn
