Let's All Fall to Pieces

Tired, sad humor for when you can't Human today

Let's All Fall to Pieces

Take a seat

Pull up a chair!

Throw your feet off over there!

Let your tension slide away,

Your fears, your worries, and your brain!

Devilish fingers

Leave them lay!

What more can we relax this day?

Let your shoulders fall from ears

And to the floor!

So dry your tears

And plop your eyes out

For relief

From all that rotten, lowdown grief!

Aching belly?

Say no more!

Drop it down, why stay so sore?

And no one hears your words you say?

Throw your ears off!

Just as they

Never listen, now can you!

And hell, toss your nose in your shoe!

The sniffles are too much to bare,

So desert the offender

Over there!

Lose those lips, on which you grind

Save them from your daily crime

And criminals!

Arrest those teeth!

Exile them in a folding sheet!

Now you cannot see or hear,

Nor speak so clearly

(But you don’t care)

So leave your sixth sense!

It’s too common

And would stop you

From hitting bottom

Now some foul organ

Fills with pain

Tear it out!

Toss it away!

Your heart can’t help you cope this time

So leave it with the rest, behind.
