The next two I think belong together
by virtue of their titles, if nothing else.
The first is called "Yesterday," which I think
is also the first line.
And the second is called "Earlier Today."
So, "Yesterday, I had the thought to create an elixir
or really a conjuring agent in a giant mixer.
Enough to summon a ghoul or two so that I
might stop obsessing about you.
God, my co-pilot told me to file it under ridiculous ideas
I'll soon regret.
But nothing else has worked yet."
"Earlier Today."
"Thinking the microphones were off,
Secretary Rumsfeld yelled kill, kill, kill, kill,
kill, kill, kill.
Jokingly, we think, but still."
