The Human Condition As Portrayed By The God Particle At The Center Of The Venn Diagram (Would Make For Some Great Reality Television)

It appears to me
For all intents and purposes
That they are content

Day after day

Huddled around the water cooler
And coffee maker
Talking about their shared interest of things
Like

‘Brangelina’
‘Snookie’
‘HG TV’
‘Dancing With The Stars’
‘Entertainment Weekly’ magazine...

‘NJ Housewives’
‘DC Housewives’
‘Central Pacific Out In The Middle Of Nowhere Housewives’
‘Transgendered Housewives’

And if nothing new
Were to be discovered
From these morning summits

So be it.

They are comfortable with the same routine
Of living their lives
Through others
In a box
From a sofa
And existing to the next day
To tell about it.

Each one
Already knowing the answers
Dissing the others
For they passed by their GED’s
And got their doctorate
In such fleeting things
As important as this.

I’m sure many
Fall asleep
Alone
On the sofa.

The particle
Gets smaller
And

Smaller.
