In 2020 Hindsight

 Found:

waking at five to start work at nine … driving to work is like waiting in line … tired from races where nobody runs … dislikes the outside because of the sun

wanting a yard next door to large fields … spending it all on stuff no one steals … dreams of a man who takes up no space … with no past and a JT Kirk face … and all the logic of his best friend … when life’s a journey it never ends

he lives where he works and only stays  … to watch matching bands and high school plays … only watches football for the halftime shows … doesn’t matter if he lives just as long as he goes

envious of his family life … yearns to be married without being a wife … an indoor guy who loves shopping spree … he’s got insurance and no banking fees

a thousand days gone won’t soon matter … can’t break the skull that’s already been shattered … jailed now for words long since spoken … fixing tools with others already broken 

trust only in accountants speak only to cats … in your camp are allowed those who can’t talk back … making fun of nieces for eating as you do … running a fever at 99.2

written in 2019, i think …
