I was taking a bath
Did I mention I dropped the toaster in the bath?

Comedy and glibness can be a remedy to the impulse to take the grand egress exit.

I love short poems that have chewy substance.

Great humor which is often lacking in a poem. It was short and to the point. Well done

There was a time "toasters" weren't electric too...

I don't make fun of those hurting so much that "ending" feels like their only option - in life most actually know a person or three that "feel" that way or have actually seen their own "moment" of mortality. Life isn't "fair" and nothing is "free"... and even cowboys cry.

Did not see that coming! I was prepared for something dark...then you hit me with that! Darkest humor. The way David Lynch might like dark humor. I was horrified by my laughter that came out loud and loved it!
