NaPoWriMo, Day Twenty Three, Poem Twenty Four

Procrastinated To-Do List

Finally accept weekly poet laureate nomination
from the boss and co-workers

Try to return the kissing knives bought for
prospective girlfriend (package opened)

Fill nightclub quota of wallet lifting hugs

Set up annual kick in the nuts from my doctor

Follow-up stamp down by med student
street gang called the Second Opinions

(ask why they're the called the Second Opinions
if there's twenty of them)

Stand up against the wall outside my apartment,
meet up with the smiling bullets

I like the work sonnet a lot, but this one really cracks me up!
