I'm a cog in the system.
Is there anything other
For lack of a better wisdom

A question asked
Is a question redacted.
Nothing but emojis,
Set up calls,
Emotional well-beings within my own walls

News is lacking.
Algorithmatic.
Time is ticking.
Culture static.

It pays the bills -
Soul ******* still.
Who are you people?
And who am I to you?
This is the team,
Brush this up, and
Make it clean!

Another cog
Another day, another slog
As soon as I'm a rusted bolt
You'll chuck me out
You haven't even heard me shout
I shout best!
But NO.
I am a number
Numbing now
Jail that's paid for
Pick me out
One by one - some wasted space
Worked so hard to be meaningless
Built by stress and fear
Slight push of career
And ai
Brush off the keys
And let out a sigh
You know you'll never hear me cry.
