Stuck In a RutA Poem by J. Edward GibbsHere I am dreaming of freedom While on my lunch break In a windowless warehouse I don't think I ever needed a drink More in my life than now God have mercy on my soul My tired wretched beaten down soul Three plus hours left before i can go home To what I don't even know Except for a drink and the best cig of the day try to shake these blues away oh whats the point for tomorrow is a new day for the alarm clock to say hey get your a*s to work dreaming is for children paying bills is for men and so are shotguns
God damn do I need a drink
