Trivial Pursuit

from EP2 by rows & rows of houses

/

lyrics

I stood up too fast
and I saw the static
of your television set
you’d fallen asleep on the remote
and as you snored it changed the channel
to an ancient game show
to reruns of questions, of quizzes
of trivial pursuits, of no answers worth hearing
a syndicated catalog of things I didn’t know
a cathode ray tube sunburn left from basking in its glow

I needed something to settle my stomach
so I trekked to the kitchen
still nursing a headache
which grew in proportion to somewhere near migraine
as I reached into the fridge
to feel around for a cold one
squint against the light
hand hit aluminum
the cognitive dissonance to feel something warm
to glance at the clock, see the eights in formation
that’s what I get, falling asleep during a storm
