ways to leave

na.

when the pressure at work gets to be too much,

s/he works on ways to leave---

this is not to say that s/he plans on

quitting,

but rather, that there is a way to depart from the

scene,

while staying right there,

in her/his chair,

looking like a good lil’ worker on the

outside.

 

where s/he goes when the stress rains down

is sometimes a paradise,

one whose beauty is something that s/he has

never actually witnessed,

but one which s/he dreams of,

one that fuels her/his every step on the way to

work---

often s/he revisits the best times of her/his life

that have passed,

with elegant memories breathing fresh air on

the mundane routine of the

work place &

when keeping oneself in the present

whilst away on leave in her/his head,

s/he is a winner every time &

the man

cannot

get inside.
