asleep as i go

little friday had the answers
of joy, unpretentious stay,
very less the upper west,
mail rebates, no refunds

i'm asleep over the keyboard
no escape from boss
the loser's brown bag meeting
a stare deep inside the bright brave world

of my monitor

days die and you die with them
a week away from ghosts and parties
this living box of mold, black stain,
fungus having a day trip into my stomach

blocked youtube
an unpaid bill
call girls for the real gfe
a step aside, slumber

more like an etherized zombie

on the wake of yet another weekend
