Lately I subscribe to the drama
Of the front of my head
Where things are only as they appear
And life and death are material facts
Witnessed by taxes and toil

Here I dwell inside a bone dream
A world of grey suits and morning meetings
I worry about a line or two
In financial statements, make small talk
Otherwise tame the wild beast
That ranges and roams within a cage of ritual
and planning


------
I'd rather have permanent employment than be called fascinating

Reality fan
Well said. There are hundreds of weary thousands who never know that there is anything happening in the meetings and little passion plays at work. Thanks.

Apt title
The script, or main event, is other words and elsewhere. The subscript is this, an entry in the margin, an afterthought, the mundane taming of a sundry beast. Nice. Thank you.
