Ode to a George Foreman Grill
Again the salty season of salty wretches
Pale faced
Sun descending
Arms stretching
Sell me a job
With hours of persuading
Laughing inside of a LED screen
The backlights blazing
Swindle fringe into one solid dread
Fuck it’s only half passed six and my eyes are off to bed
It’s been less than two hours spent writing and
Clicking while my attentionsfighting
To pull me from the pretence that I’m hereby employable.
The optimism drives become quickly edible
Now I’ve left the screen
And my head feels hours grilled thrilled spent
Under George formans monied beam
