Just shoot me now.
Before the rest of my life unfolds,
let me lie beneath dirt’s dark ease
tickled by centipedes,
sidled by earthworms,
melting into soil.
Let your bullshit compost my remains,
until something beautiful grows.

Must not have been a pleasant day for you. So sorry about that. We missed you yesterday.
I did enjoy the imagery, no matter if it was in a sarcastic sort of a way.

Yeah it is sarcastic. I like the imagery, too. Thanks for stopping to comment, Steve. I appreciate it. My day was fine. Sometimes my writing is based on old “incidents.”
