To chop your own head off
will no longer be an issue.
If my arms disengage from my body
limbs will still be present
but they won't be my own
and I don't do well without extremities.
There may be some truth to this
Flat World,
and if I stand on a tuna fish can
I betcha I can see the top of your head,
where the bald spots are
and the scar from
when you walked into that satellite dish
as we ran through the sprinklers.
If I flatline soon
tell my mom I am sorry
for the pot on the front porch
that I broke. It was just an accident.

I like these poems.
