almost done

chop onions and green peppers
into the meat mix. it's a comfort
food nite. cold front of neptune
turning into the very stream
we step in, eddies in the night sky.
and did you hear about mars? yes,
sadly, another war, coming closer
then backing off. that old man
just can't find something to blast about.
lava's barely flowing and it's a good thing
cuz well, i don't really want to talk
with what i've seen.
pour the grease off, resettle
the bacon begins to crisp
cat climbs the screen, screaming
to go out. might as well take this slumping
belly to the door now as later...
