I am having a very bad day



I have spent time with my family
(For the first time in a long time)
and my friend
(For even longer)

And this

Pre-described version
of what I’m meant to be happy with

Means absolutely nothing.



I had an interview.

I did well.

But they says

“no.

You is shit.”

Go to bed.
You tit.




Is like a submarine.
Is like a chat.

Gone mad.
Done bad.




I wallow in the sounds we created.
