On the Job

My surroundings are playing with sound; My ears are not working. My surroundings are playing with light; My eyes are not working. The childhood was really good; I was so foolish. Now, who knows what happens to me! I can no more relish. All the colours vanish today; Only black remains. Yet, the hopeless mind dances around; 'Good' - no body says! In the end I am in silent attire - Even no time for a sob. Then suddenly I realise that I am on the job.

Wow, this is such a unique piece of writing, it came across as kind of grim to me but also somehow magically comedic. Well done to you.
