the company and you

the company rips your mind out and stomps on it
you accept this because you've been socialized
to be a good worker and keep your chin up no matter what
if you complain you won't be able to get another job
but there is no reward to being a good worker
the only rewards go to the company run by investors
girted in the armor of algorithms
nor care about anything real in the world

the company gets rid of you with an offer you cannot refuse
you accept this because you're human ballast
but you thought you were something else

you are money houses cars yard pool revenge tie and dining
you are vacation hawaii dancing sessions prep school martyrdom
you are liar oil popping time waster subordinate grinding angry face
you are excuses fucker private prison bitcoin bitch investor wannabe

girted in the armor of what could have been
and what illusions could be
nor care about anything real in the world
