Mistakes By The Hour
I gained more in working a job I hated than a job I loved. In my employment to the corporate death machine I came to the realization I am responsible for my success. Me and no one else.
As a vampire walking the halls of the hospital I sought the sunlight that I was denied in an office. Was I misled by my elders into believing the 9 - 5 would save me from myself? I stand as a testament to the younger generation who find themselves puzzled as to which road to take. Decide for yourself.

I have hated 9 - 5 my entire life.
I like your vampire reference too.
I enjoy reading your thoughts, you ponder, like us all.

I tried to write upbeat poetry, but it does not seem to come out as well as my negative writing.

Being a vampire alludes to working the graveyard shift? Ha-ha, kidding. I certainly wouldn't think office work is "emanating." Ha-ha, again, kidding. Yeah, life is often enigmatic, as to what pertains to real happiness and success. Heck, you can even have that, and still be missing something. Choices and decisions define who you are, and if you've found solace in yours, that's good. You can always be thankful for what you have too, rather than taking things for granted. For instance, be thankful you get the chance to work. Some people can't work at all. The more thankful you are, the more it adds to quality of life. If I could add advice to what you have here, that would be it. If you take things for granted, you can become bitter from things not going your way all the time. Anyway, thanks for sharing. Looking forward to more perspectives from you, negative or positive.
