“MR. ANGRY” 24 Jun 01

she said
“You’re very angry on the inside aren’t you?”
which kind of stumped me
I thought I could raise defences
like normal, joke it off...
Honey I could rage for England
and be a Superhero called
Mr. Angry
but she’s right
if this is all we’ve got
after going to work 37 hours a week
48 weeks a year
without even getting out of
the credit prison
based on what my boss pays me
of course,
he wouldn’t want to earn as little as I
I suppose then
only a saint
wouldn’t be angry.
