I’m sitting, chewing strawberry gum, lips smacking like a cow, in a most unattractive office on my break
Scabby, drab, upholstery-type wallpaper completely unadorned
File cabinets laden with various junk in plastic tubs and labeled card boxes
More supplies stacked up, a teetering tower in the corner
A feeble attempt at a half stocked coffee bar looking lonely
The page looking less blank now since I spat out the description of the little room that currently contains me
Glancing periodically at the timer on my phone
As the minutes of my freedom dwindle
And I must return to the cage I get paid to hulk around in
Until I can go home to the cage I much prefer
Where I am free again
Oh, pish posh
Maybe not
But home is at least closer
To heaven

Yes, I took the feature picture and showed it to you even though it wasn’t worth taking or showing. I also wrote a poem about a very mundane moment in my life and maybe it wasn’t worth sharing.
