Coke Zero
How did we ever survive
without Coke Zero
and it’s impossibly delicious
sweetness
sloshing about in the can,
with no calories
and no fear, at all?
How did we manage
to stay awake all night
furiously masturbating
to the internet girls who
enjoy taking their clothes off
and showing the world
their buttholes?
And how did we ever procreate
without adding
its chemical stamina
to Jack Daniels’ liquid confidence,
all over the bars
and clubs down town?
And how did we force ourselves to work
with the same idiots and the same
sense of absolute disconnection,
day after day after day,
without its cheeky optimism
for moral support?
And how could we possibly
love our friends and families
when inside we’re a seething
cauldron of hate
and anger
and dread?
How did we ever find any meaning
in this world
before we found Coke Zero?
