It's like being pulled into consciousness from a bad dream. Nice. Reminds me of the everyday grind of the working stiff; busting his butt all day just waiting for the whistle to blow so he can go home. I've been that guy. I enjoyed the read.
Now that is where the heart is, and the countdown of the clock brings you nearer to the place where you belong. You took me back to my childhood home and I was thankful for that.
