How Today Becomes A Creepy Spider

You have hopes, maybe.
Maybe, you have financial problems
or thoughts like lasers. Scattered thoughts
like scattered lasers. You may imagine
a laser shooting through a prism.
You imagine the prism jiggling.
Prism Jiggling. Now there's a band name.
Their first record,
Thoughts Like Lasers, Lasers Like BB's on A Tiled Floor,
rocks.
After a while, you cut your hair.
Then, you notice bits of hair in the bathwater.
It is now beginning.
In the background, the TV says
"puberty isn't for kids anymore."
