FIRST THING IN THE MORNING…

By

Ross E F Lombardi

.

First thing in the morning…

Do you?

How do I put this…?

.

Do you ever get that feeling

That if you took a human life

That you would for a short while

For a few minutes before the arrest,

Suddenly feel SO much better,

.

Like a weight finally lifted,

Or

Like a boil you needed lancing for decades

Finally burst,

Or

Uncomfortable shoes you had to wear for decades,

Finally being able to be taken off.

Or

Like finally finding a moment to safely fart on a hot date.

.

Ever felt that you just, kind of, really need to kill a random human being?

For that sense of relief.

Just to feel human yourself again?

Or it that just me? - First thing? - Most mornings…>

?

Oh look!

Coffee!!

FIRST COFFEE OF THE DAY!

Mmmmmm!

COFFEE!

Aaahhh! - DAM! - THAT’S BETTER!

I needed that!

.

Now what was I thinking earlier?

Nope its gone!

Can’t remember now!

Never mind!

It was probably nothing important!

    Lol, thanks for giving me a laugh today! Imagine what we might do if we don't have that morning coffee.
