"Time flies,"
is a proverbial expression
that bears a scythe,
although it seems to speak
casually.
It is hard
not to envy those
with their stay-at-home success
while i work
at my True Work
with brain and muscles already aching
from the labor
and the toil
the ceaseless flow of the kaching of the
cash register
customers whistle at me
like a dog
when they need service:
enchained wage slavery
paralyzing my senses and my mind.
I didn't want to make it personal
maybe this is the best way
to get to know me.
"Time flies,"
is a proverbial expression
that bears a scythe,
although it seems to speak
casually.
But all of this hurts
and must be done on the fly.
