Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEBE FGH FGIThe ordinary milkman brought that dawn | A |
Of destiny delivered to the door | B |
In square hermetic bottles while the sun | C |
Ruled decree of doomsday on the floor | B |
- | |
The morning paper clocked the headline hour | D |
You drank your coffee lke original sin | E |
And at the jet plane anger of God's roar | B |
Got up to let the suave blue policeman in | E |
- | |
Impaled upon a stern angelic stare | F |
You were condemned to serve the legal limit | G |
And burn to death within your neon hell | H |
- | |
Now disciplined in the strict ancestral chair | F |
You sit solemn eyed about to vomit | G |
The future an electrode in your skull | I |
