Saw god today.
He was on the side of a semi,
cutting me off on an LA freeway,
and the dots at the end of the letters
of his name (abbreviation indicated)
imply what I've known all along
and only learned to express recently
with my quick-americancapitalistconsumer-drivenMollyRingwaldinduced wit.
god stands for something else,
something that doesn't need to be spelled out
because it's an industry we should all be familiar with
by now.
I'll take that to go (my life)
please. Thank you. Have a nice day.
Preferring to take it out of the store
to enjoy it after I've purchased all
required cables and accessories,
can't forget that handy, effortless freegiftwithpurchase
that was thrown in the bag with the receipt
and the coupons for all the refills I'll be wanting.
Instant gratification will really come in handy
while I'm breaking in my brand-new happiness.
You guys go, enjoy yourselves.
I'll stay in tonight with the boys and the turntables
and the beer and home-cooked ghetto-style food,
the computer cables in the floor
(that i really should vacuum soon)...
yeah I know we've bitched about that TV before
but the Simpsons are on,
and we'd go out but who needs it when
there was work to do today and
we're all here together already.
Somebody get a job,
Somebody turn that down,
Somebody answer the phone,
Won't somebody please tell me?
It can be anybody really,
as long as it's one of you,
but only while I'm here
and is somebody writing this down?
In a world wholly-dependent on possibilities,
god showed up today on an LA freeway.
But I was late to see my friends,
and life-to-go took precedence once again.
Thank god for that.
