Then

then you pulled me down and drowned me
in your mediocre desperation
and this was after
the vision had melted
and wasted in the bucket
and the delivery guy asked for more money and cried
because he didn't know any better
and the headlines that day were frantic
which didn't help matters much
and when the cat ran off with the squirrel
I knew it was
the end of an era
