Waiting (Explicit)

Always Waiting

Watching window panes for shadows from the sundial

Scrolling screens staring at the clock face

In another queue

Feeling some kind of way,

Pangs of inevitability

That have become Standard behavior but still doesn't feel normal to me,

Thanks enormously for all the headaches

All the skipped meals and all the essays

I truly mean it

Super decent

Always in the shadows of a pyramid

With palms outstretched like a theramin

Snap like a terrapin

Never getting backed like a late train

Waiting in the wings with a name plate,

Beaten, bruised, scratched, tattered, trodden into carpet tiles

A safe space

Say what you feel but make it positive

Cos nay sayyers

Getting black balled when the knowledge hits

Always make the 1 ups get 1 ups

Or some other shit,

Gone are the days of reaching motherships on merit

I doubt the mere existence of an effort based win

Luck is in the mix and your ancestors standing

Get used to waiting at the back of the queue,

Cos that's modern living standards

Monolithic management of human learned traits

And board level abandoned

You're on your own till you draw your last breath

Comoradaries illusionary for the last step

Yep
