twist off caps

the world
is made harder with twist
off caps
on nearly everything.
i keep
a pair of plyers
and a blow torch
nearby
to open a carton of cream,
the pills,
the toothpaste.
the bread which
is triple wrapped.
the butter is
sealed
inside its little tub,
almost impossible
to open
with a snap.
organic chicken
in parts,
air tight and factory
sealed
with space age plastic.
i need the power saw
for that.
i stick a small pack
of explosives
on
the peanut butter jar
and wait
in the other room 
for it to blow
open.
