Friday couldn't come quick enough
after all that **** and stuff we have to wade through just to get through what we always knew was at best, a waste of time.

It's time to cast out the net again
see what we can catch and
reset again,

and if you're thinking,
why not jump through their hoops
why not sit up and do tricks?
then
you have become
a part of the
Matrix.

What sticks in your throat should choke you
but they'll make a joke of it and because
you've become a part of it
because you're
plugged into it,
you'll laugh like a madman
they'll laugh like hyenas.
5:15 am when normality washes out with the sleep from my eyes.
