flunking sunday school

Is a grave digger aware
of suicide-season?
Does he begin
to set his alarm earlier
once November starts
and make sure to use all his sick days
before summer is up?
If a new drug hits the streets,
do the clear the lots in preparation?

When does a fish know
to stop eating,
or that it's arrived,
when all tastes the same
and the water never rises?

Can a saint be a martyr
if they flunked sunday school?

What an incredible gimmick
to sell a pen that can be disassembled;
the company can never go broke
