I had a friend named Big Dog
Who killed himself in the home goods department
With a blender.
He started with his left hand
And pushed it into the blender
Until his whole body had touched the twirling blades
And he did not stop screaming
Until
It
Was
Over.
Later,
A cashier found his wedding ring in a pile of meat
And sold it online for a sliver of bitcoin.
He traded that bitcoin in for heroin to impress a girl who didn’t know his name.
Tomorrow the world will keep turning.
No one will see the kingdom of Heaven without sacrifice
