Adulting
I sit here at my screen…. scrolling through my future
Confused in such an awe as to how I even stumbled into this position
After years of dedication, loyalty and determination
I feel spat in the face with betrayal, greed and arrogation
So I continue scrolling through ad after ad
Each one with an unread chapter to my fate
A story to end the same way the first one began
I was never the one to narrate
I finally see the ways of the land the unspoken rules of corporation
Given the sight to see I dive out of their attempt at annihilation
But more hits are to come so I must keep my armor prepared
I cannot be silenced and I will not be snared.
