this tribunal appellate,
platinum lassitude painted
with disingenuous fingers
appalled at the notion of loss
breathing with eyes shut
the hour is late and no one
is coming to champion the cause
because there’s no profit involved
I’m freebasing ideas in the square room
all the blank stares tell me
it’s unfair and the prognosis
untenable, tourmaline mandate
we are torpid cancer
awaiting fruition
I find it all so fun(gible)
strapped in the network
my workload is overloaded
debt my unnecessary companion
If I just get that one more thing
capacitors at full capacity
we are breakdown
not like Tom Petty
run for your life
cannot run far on edge of knife
hey acrobat, better watch your step
you are gonna get cut
we are all bleeding
hive of hornets
who want to make honey
the sweet, sugary paper money
I wanna walk away
I wanna walk away
I wanna walk away
but i got kids to feed
so perhaps
another time
cook me up three
I am contrary
so i am not rhyming
just to say,
a little
fuck you
to who is
the question

The rat race is a beast to contend with day after day… love the photo… That is the way it is,,, kids to feed and no time to think!
