Premium Member Full-Time Job
living without love is a full-time job
a difficult task to accomplish
yet as workaholics we manage
through daily practice 
we achieve mastery

fools we are...

No Workaholics
You are as stupid as me, I can see that crystal clear now. That is why I liked you in the first place, I get that. But knock if off now, please. Why wouldn't you be the wiser one? I am not into doing all the hard work on my own indefinitely....

Breaking news
the new generation
has cured that
dreadful disease
which afflicted most
baby boomers

Indeed
workaholics
are a thing of the past
mind you…
they’ve been replaced
by game-aholics
but let’s focus
on the positive…
workaholism is cured
and a thing of the past

Loving Oneself
What of loving oneself?
Ponder three allusions
and think through self-love...
Thou shall not kill ever,
don't take what is not yours, 
neither should you deceive.

So say I to you -
you, workaholics -
Don't put your own life
in the grave working
eighty-hour work weeks.

Don't rob yourself
of the pleasure
of true success -
a job well done.

Hear me out!
never lie
to yourself

seeking
fickle

praise....

Living In a Hostel
Battery hens
Caged in and made to try and fit in
Give us a break
Freedom is scarce

The world aghast
Nothing but routine, disordered order and disappointment 

Imagine rain clouds moving past
Pretty for outsiders 
But inside is dark, full of woe

Normal is not normal
Life, unimaginable by workaholics and city goers

Carry on with your day
Amidst the pain
Find joy
Amongst the sorrow and disorientation 

Stay in tact
Let go, but moving on is unnecessary...
