"So I'll Remember"

You come
You go
You fall away

and I forget

I'll find another

and another
and another until

I've run out

I implore you
I beg you
Please, stick around

"The Villain's Fruit"

Looks good
Tastes sweet
But rots in the belly

Turns to poison in the veins
Travels to the heart

Corrupts it
Hardens it

Dead inside

Need a transfusion
Type Christ-positive required

"What Is It?"

Dry flaky morsels
Slightly sweet
Slightly bitter

Morning, noon, night
Day after day

Needs flavor options
Spices, nectar
Salt or pepper

Morning, noon, night
Day after day

Don’t save it for tomorrow
Unless you like worms
Double it on Friday

Morning, noon, night
Day after day
Day after day

Can’t live without it
Sustenance in the desert

"How I Work"

Ten monitors
Nine hours
Eight safety messages
Seven binders
Six coffees
Five computers
Four clipboards
Three maps
Two microphones
One stubby pencil

"A Day Off"

The coffee's on
The wife is gone
Boys are up
It's time to strut
