AC(CORD)ING TO FATE.....

AC(CORD)ING  TO FATE.....

Type writer
Sleep fighter
Black ink
Wine to drink
Cigarette alight
Lonely night.

Wet lung.....Dry tongue

Candles flame
Upon windows pane
Silken threads
Form spiders web
A creaking chair
A vacant stare
Twirling my hair
Nonchalant care
This comfy seat
Where I retreat
And ideas form.....

Brain waves...Thunders storm

Paper planes
Origami cranes
Oil paintings
Model trains

Then a booming chime
Tells me the time
Tick Tock
Grandfather clock
As the pendulum swings
My telephone rings
But electric cords
Upon floor boards
Became my trip wire
Now the straights are dire
As the unanswered phone
Has made my fate known...

ELECTROCUTED..!!
Motions now muted
I've hit the deck..!
Pulse check....
Ā  Wait a sec...
Ā Ā Ā  Broken neck.

I'm so weary...sleep time.
Yet exalted....sublime
.

As I rest here in peace
Ā  It's confirmed...
Ā  Ā  I'm deceased.

Who knows how I concocted... a poet at his desk who dies so accidentally simple...almost accepting it was part of his daily routine... hahaha.

Was a fun write without sounding too sinister..mwhahahaha
