PAPER PURSUIT

 

I don’t wish to engage

in chitchat gossip with

my fellow coworkers,

whom I hardly consider

friends due to the stress

of a constant sense

of being a nuisance

to each other’s company

in that endless daylong

frenzied feeble flourish

as slaves to ourselves

and certain societal strife,

sustained by the greed of

a wicked wage of money.

Things can get weird,

because here, in our sphere,

we interact thru barriers

and become our true selves,

oftentimes surprising

by chiming to a cross

rhythm of anxious tides.

I wish God to shower you with money

so that your time is not spent

in a job you might not have chosen..

but in penning a better world
