It was a robotic voice
A cold voice

"Hello"
The IRS has filed
A lawsuit against you

Refer to case#......

One of those
Computerized voices

I think it was chosen
To be that way
The IRS wants its money
It is uncaring, unfeeling

So is life
It is uncaring
Remains aloof
To the individual's needs

Better to turn hopes
Desires
Better to turn that all off

I'm just a tall
Akward body

Why do I watch
Others play video games
I'm not sure

Must be nice
To have relationships

I will
Do things my way

When they get back from
Their trip
They will be greeted
By the IRS Message

Poor taxpayer
Half of his live
He's just been working
For the government

I rely on the generosity
Of others

A drifter

Who knows, one day
I may not be able to pay
My bills at all

I will inherit the home

An isolated life
Is misunderstood

Same dull frown

I often wondered
Like Data

What it would be like
To be more content
Like most people

Changing times
Changing places
Changing names
Changing faces

Not many connections
At all

Just sounds
Sights
Days
Times

We are tired of waiting
For Jesus

We are waiting

Make things better
Make me feel happy
Make my chest stronger
My body less awkward

I suppose you can't make me happy

Oh well

I don't feel anything

Leave me alone
Matt
