Comma

pausing on behalf of those that want you to walk quicker, to step on it, to “be all that you can” be (clocked in to their own rat race which you have taken part in because you feel that if you don’t then the world around you will stop turning & from there on out everything that you once knew will crumble around your feet all because you refused to play the game & be one of the folks that stands around that water cooler babbling about each other’s sex lives & who is more of an alcoholic than the others & who might get fired this week if they don’t get down on all fours & beg to keep on sucking that big ol’ corporate ***** which they will flail in your face a thousand time over until you can taste nothing but sweaty ejaculate) in the name of all that is profit-making & business worthy, market savvy & expedient within the context of an executive nature of things---swing that briefcase sweet servant & pretend that what you do now will improve your chances of not having to deep-throat slimy corporate dong for the rest of your life---you didn’t sell your soul, no---you sold your right to speak of ever having one.
