Bradford Middleton writes


A STEP TOWARDS IMMORTALITY

I’ve taken my foot off the gas at work
Back to 16 hours a week allowing me
To refocus here on the word on this
Luxurious Thursday night, nursing a
Glass more than half-full and an ashtray
That’s got a bit more to go before I
Chuck it all asunder.

Today all I’ve done is sit around, doze
Re-write a soon to be legendary story
And smoke as the daze pass here caught
In a never-ending battle to get on, closer
To death, closer
To immortality
And further away from those goddamn tills.
