Elon Musk is on TV behind the bar, over the fish tank,
while I eat my sushi.
Onscreen Musk is courtside at the Lakers, yakking it up
  with Jeffrey Katzenberg.
Maybe they’re putting together a picture deal: maybe
Katzenberg be like;
“We’ll film your Mars landing and your first 60 days.
It’ll be a blockbuster.” 
 As I’m riding home in my self-driving Tesla, I’m thinking:
I liked Musk better
when he was talking more about cars and rockets to Mars
and less about
the science of turd emojis, Twitter bots, and “the woke mind virus.”
Fortunately my wife,
who insists I shave my scalp bald like Bezos, isn’t inhaling 
the musk of Musk
when I get home. She’s ordering an 85” Class QN900 A
Samsung Neo QLED 8K
Smart TV on Amazon instead. “For the bedroom,” she says.
Seems the bedroom
is the agenda item tonight, as she wants me to give her a baby.
But as I climax,
as my cum blasts off to Mars, I see Elon Musk in her eyes.
