Alarmed

Living with no purpose or direction. Like drones making others happy. Stay in line, don't act out. Don't get sappy. Don't get out of line with me boy. Just do what you're told. Dollar by dollar. I will not be sold. So don't get out of line boy. I do what I'm told. Money in your pocket. I will not be sold. It's alarming that no one speaks up. Punished for protest. My mind is under tyranny. I mustn't resist. Puppets on a string. Living for infinite. How can I complain? You'll have to get rid of me.
