Peekaboo. Sunshine around the corner.
Today, an umbrella day, the day after
the parking lot fell out at IHOP.
A sinkhole in perfect rectangular collapse,
all overhead photos like 3D schematic.
Imagine the mania of syrup - no escape:
Malibu swallowed, Subaru gulped.
The PR department citing disaster until
marketing offers subtle choice:
A groundbreaking offer
Earth shaking stacks
Fill your bottomliss pit
"Just a suggestion." Remarks are
50/50 side-eye and sly grinning
pomade cured haircuts and
still-tucked shirts
who have earned their right
to a sense of humor.
Tragedy opening, as it does,
a fresh window to free speech.
