Dead Line

Bowie and Mercury sang it best;  
pushing down on me  
red-tape-express ride  
through paper mountains  
all downhill from here.  
 
Bring on the Clone Army.  
I'll type, while myself dictates,  
faster than a Japanese bullet.  
All aboard!  
 
Slow motion train-wreck captivates all,  
except scurrying rat-riders.  
Tickets please!  
 
pushing down on me,  
under pressure.
