wouldn’t it be amazing

if you were to wake and find

that you’re not chair of every single thing

Most of us in agreement with the motion

That will put me in the driver's seat for the whole year

Wouldn't it be exciting if the writing I was doing wasn't memos and emails

I could work out an answer for this student or clear up anything but your problem, dear.

No one is ever satisfied, or mollified, or gratified by conscientious organizing.

Can I get any deeper in

These piles of half done notes

It's making me crazy

Oi, oi. Committee chair!

Dying

Oi Oi committee chair...crying

suddenly i'm aware

that i am sitting in the same position

that i was this morning

everything is in pieces

all around me - haven't found me

but there's something that is dawning on me

What am I even writing for? Does anyone really know? I'm asking this question.

Is it worth all the meetings

Is it even best to go? I'm needing to rest now.

Oi, oi. committee chair

Dying

Oi Oi committee chair...crying

This meeting’s quickly going nowhere

Watching the clock so I can leave

Will it be minutes or hours

working hard so i can pay

the bills that build and turn me grey

from temple to temple

Oi, oi. Committee chair!

Dying

Oi Oi committee chair.. Crying again....


This meeting is quickly going nowhere.
