this career gig is taxing on the dream.
a run of 12 hour seat stints and my elbow locks up,
my back is in ruins,
im crowse-eyed from an unchanging digital horizon,
sunup to sundown and beyond.
but worst yet
i just fell off the edge of the mouse pad,
1/8" screamer!

mouse you inquire unto my psychological injuries?
those are universes.
im constantly depressed and self-medicating
so's i can accept my cultural ignorance,
my moral sacrifices, and my over-achievements.
i just wanna go nowhere.
but im everywhere.
i want to be noone,
but im important to others.
i want to exist, quietly,
but i got to turn mad-combustions
just to generate a turd.
it's heavy, man.
my counselor tries to put me on the couch
for her interrogations-slash-hypnotisms,
but i always choose instead to edge for an hour
on her base-board while crimping on her
glass-encased credentials, and then
execute finger-tip pullups on her door jamb
upon each pass of mine across sanity's threshold.

it's a field trip to Croatia with Patrick Sawyer
u2 need to mingle on some large stoney object and commiserate
this crag looks somber enough

i bailed on the tree surgeon gig in 2003 and got into bartending. tree work is exciting but i got sick of being so worked on my off days that i could barely ever climb at my peak ability. now i make more money working three shifts a week and i can get in some activities before work as opposed to heading out after work all beat down.
i remember bitching about how tired i was on weekends to a badass freeclimber guy who was FFAing a bunch of zion aid lines at the time. he replied, "that's why i have a desk job."
that said, i did manage to slash four tendons, my ulnar artery and a few nerves polishing a friggen wine glass. i guess no job is completely safe.
