Is Love Delivered by UPS?
Wishing You and Yours a Happy and
Holy Prime Day
All the empty boxes won’t
go away
So I’m burning them
outside after the rain
Automatic gunfire from the
next road over
And is there a meaning in
all of this?
We have mail-order cameras
to protect
All the mail-order things that
we don’t need
From the neighbors firing
off rounds at dusk
Maybe at a menacing
metaphor
All wants are now delivered
to a home address -
And is love delivered
by UPS?
