The hounds from work wait.

The hounds from work wait.

A Poem by andrew mitchell

The hounds from work wait.

One could not face the day;
the twists, the frowns, the anger
placed upon thee.

I pulled up the cover
sheltering my thoughts,
the outside world
peering into mine.

Like  I was some
life exhibit, caged.
They, waiting to pounce
upon my release.

I was controlled
into thinking, believing
freedom. No I was....
a prisoner
of my own choice.

“How in the hell could a man enjoy being awakened at 6:30 a.m. by an alarm clock, leap out of bed, dress, force-feed, s**t, piss, brush teeth and hair, and fight traffic to get to a place where essentially you made lots of money for somebody else and were asked to be grateful for the opportunity to do so?”

― Charles Bukowski, Factotum
