"Good Morning, World!"

TRANSHUMANIZATION

The Tomato-coloured Couch 3:10pm

Black Jesus & White Christ

drove, Black Jesus at the wheel

22 miles of Shelburne County

from Barrington to Shelburne

in Their Silver Silverado

to see a doctor there:

Dr Death

Who refused to let Them in

They did a Double Take

switched drivers & turned around

to drive 22 miles back to Barrington —

at The Nova Scotia Liquor Commission

They bought an 8-pack of LaBatt’s Blue

& drove to the bottom of Cape Sable Island

to The Hawk Beach

for a picnic

 

BLACK/WHITE

The Tomato-coloured Couch 11:44am

Black Jesus is now driving

a new white Silverado

I saw Him at The Clyde River Exit

& followed Him into Sobey’s in Barrington

where He parked

at The Yellow Sign On The Cart Corral:

In The Event Of Emergency Gather Here”

He parked in an assembly

of White Vehicles

while I walked into The Store

to get some Cat Food

& fruit for My Sick Daughter
