I Watch as the day untangles from the night, and there's a slight chance of rain. The radio squawks, so now I ask: is not watching and listening multitasking? if so then I bask in your applause,

can't find my socks
which rocks me to the core
I cry as I crawl around the bedroom floor
but eventually, I spot them
consequently,
got them
now wondering
what all the fuss was for.

Post insights are telling me
that the average age of my
page viewers
is well over a century.

Specsavers have saved me
and
I become the darling of the
elderly.

Another tea, Maud?
I tried so hard
but it seemed that
I couldn't reach her
never once
rea...lising
that she was the teacher,

and she taught me so well.

Memories
are just wheels that turn round inside me
bringing me
to this time where you stand beside me

They know we're numbers
and now
we'll know that we're numbers,

binary coded on the way to being
railroaded.

No pass and you can't pass go
