Zoom Out
Jerry Paper
The duck eating almonds;
He’s wasting time today
Until his job interview
He’d love some honest pay
We zoom out to see the whole park
The projects stand tall on the horizon
A yawn, he won’t be late
The interview’s not til eight
Hey, I bet he’ll do great
The hunter comes round the bend
She’s got him in her sights
The gun goes blammo;
To die’s not difficult
“We’re eating tonight,” she thinks
“This is the end of the road for me,” he thinks
“this stinks. Always knew I’d die
One day just not today.”
We zoom out once again;
A chicken’s getting mugged top left;
A badger’s trying to score dope;
A human’s riding out the joke
