Self-made, Self-broken
They say
the right woman
is capable of
breaking a man’s heart
on the spot;
the wrong God
tempting lesser righteous souls
will break a man’s faith
right away;
the right enemy
turning out to be not so right after all
is able to break a man’s neck
at first strike;
the wrong choice
of facial hair-do
might break a man’s look
at once;
fate
striking a nasty blow
can break a man’s spirit
in no time;
I say,
there’s only one thing
fit to break a man
altogether;
if your heart’s in the right place and
you couldn’t read this from work,
be it due to
your asshole boss,
numbing yourself to the outside world,
or the lack of high-end equipment such as computers with graphical user interface,
you’ll know what I’m talking about.
Employment just doesn’t pay off.
