Couch in the desert

Posted to Poetry




As I was wandering around the desert on a tuesday

god i hate tuesday

never mind. everybody hates tuesday.

as i was wandering around
i came upon a couch
or the couch came upon me
and i sat down on the couch that i came upon
as i sat down
as i sat
i wondered
whos couch?
could it have been the couch of Sigmund Freud?
who sat and took notes as Carl Jung
discussed religious experience
and masturbation
on this very couch?

It boggles the mind.
