A Day in the Life of a Well-Respected Business Man

A Day in the Life of a Well-Respected Business Man

A Poem by Mar
"

Written with all of the names like a memorial, alphabetized, as in to remember all of the men who live lives like this day after day unmentioned

"

John Andrews
     Wakes up in the morning
     Shaves Thomas Brown’s face
     Brushes Michael Cote’s teeth
     Drinks Paul Durand’s coffee.

Gets in his brand new BMW
     Drives
     Waits in traffic.

Gets to the office of Randy Edwards
     Sits at Steven Foster’s computer
     Attends meetings for Kevin Gordon.
     Goes home
     Eats dinner
     Watches TV.

Changes into Justin Holden’s skimpy dress,
     Matt Irish’s fishnet tights
     Eric Johnson’s platform shoes
     Tim Kennedy’s hot pink wig.

Paints his face with make-up
     Tucks himself in
     Stuffs himself up.
     Goes to perform as
     Miss Candy Surprise.

John Andrews
     Wakes up in the morning
     Shaves Thomas Brown’s face
     Brushes Michael Cote’s teeth
     Drinks Paul Durand’s coffee.

Vacuums glitter trailing from the door
     On the rug
     To the bed.

Oh My! What secrets we keep, yet we know not how deep! I thoroughly enjoyed this piece! In order to keep it all together, you showed a deeply active cycle one must go through. A new 'American Psycho!'
