Alone and Dying
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
