Morning television is so insulting
the evening still darkened over the highways and a chipper voice slicing into you
in quick pulses about a fucking bake sale.

Who knows what the hell happened when it was darkness everywhere all night
You know?
Who knows what the hell happened except that the farmer's almanac will help you get to work
and there are offramps and red lights blurring on freeways and there is the entirety of the dark side of the earth

half a planet mostly asleep and the vitamins made by sunlight depleted
background radiation and exposure to the voices in the sky until there was nothing else

there's a pile up on 1-5 corridor exit east to fremont
there's a caution out on the early corn trading
