Grand Theft Poetry

FOCUSED ON THE GAZELLE

"You're Fired!"
"Don't touch me," he growled. 
Just take time to mess around. Get Lost. Wander. You never know where it is going to lead you.
The angel watched him thinking, 
I'll be missing you.
as he stared out of the window,
remembering his father telling him that stars were just far away suns.
The visits from his aunt and uncle showed
how he now lived and how his family cared.
I think the word he's trying to say is PLEASE.
The wail of sirens swirling all around him,
I told him that I would try, but
he didn't care.
It wasn't really like a horror romantic tragedy
and after it was all over,
I threw up a few times because
we are human.
and
we know how to stay focused on the gazelle.
