Euclidean Dream

daily, we struggle to perfect Euclid

or else, we risk blowing corporate's lid

six-pack bottles and eight-pack cans

forward-facing, marching on demand

make that Euclidean dream come true

make that successful facade come through

all the dozens, scores and twenty-fours

laser-level straight, the bosses all implore

every product beneath the burlap eve

Euclid pulled forward is what they conceive

but this is humankind we're talking about

nothing truly good to shout home about

leaving messes for the next guy to clean

discontent is that one common theme

yet the actor has to care, pick up the slack

or else he's part of the justified attack

and yet some attacks are unjustified

and the actor is left spiritually fried

just a new set of troubles, the daily grind

no matter where you go, no matter the time

so play along and keep perfecting Euclid

stick to the mission, you'll be glad you did
