Lingua Franca

                                                                         

Love, peace, prosperity —

The three verities of happiness's high drama.

How do I clue you in that they're not worth a bad crap,

Certainly not all they're cracked up to be?

I know the truth: death is a whole hell of a lot better.

 

"How did you tap into this,

Get a handle on the veracity of reality's reality,

Its six-feet-under number?" you ask me.

I suppose it just goes with the territory —

No-man's-land, where quicklime is life's lingua franca.
