11:44 PM // do you remember the first time we met? i do.

12:02 AM // i remember the first time we locked eyes like it was yesterday

12:09 AM // i remember the swirl of green and brown all in one mesmerising gaze taunting me like a bad dream

12:57 AM // you were never just a stranger to me, you were never a face that didn’t matter  

1:18 AM // from the moment i laid eyes on you i knew you’d break my heart

1:32 AM // i can't stop thinking about the last time you told me you loved me

1:55 AM // you called me up after weeks of nothing and told me you'd never love anyone like you loved me

2:07 AM // you were saying goodbye, weren't you?

2:50 AM //  i could have forgiven you if it was only a kiss, but you fell in love with her

3:49 AM // i've kissed lots of people since you, but none of them pulled my hair and tasted like fanta

4:27 AM // my god i loved you with everything i had

5:01 AM // it still wasn't enough, was it?

5:55 AM // it was always meant to be her.

Paired truths' paradox
Instant gratifications
Dissatisfactions


2
Black and white suits drone
Crushing joys in stale board rooms
Wishing for lunchtime


3
Only prints can touch
Rejection up on the screens
Instant messages


4
At water cooler
Smiles are leaving as they begin
Punch clock is waiting


5
New lovers are blind
Eyes on mobile devices
Hands in empty laps


6
Paper copies voids
Work a day world is shuffled
Even carpets smudged


7
Message coming in
Break away from actuality
Machine is turnoff


8
Monitoring tables
New job for prince or princess
Thrown cushy with wheels


9
Economy rules
Each worker replaceable
Sociopaths king

Drones chirp in dreamworld
Beyond corporate glass room
Birds singing outside

Typing on keyboard
Moving and Clicking the mouse
Modern art is made

There is no sympathy
for the sheep in wolves' clothing.
I am a hungry creature
who won't eat the flesh
of my brother.
I starve for my principles,
and seek protection from death
in lupine costume.
It's hard dealing with aggressive groups who just want to bully the weak.
Me man,
Me strong,
Me work you all night long.

Me no fear,
Me not queer,
Me is primal
Me is....

Argh, no WIFI!!

so tell me again
how this ends,
is it with your knife through my chest
or your gun to my head ?
