At work

Six o’clock in the dark cold mornings.
Six o’clock in the snow, ice and rain.
Six o’clock a daily foreboding.
Will it be another day to get maimed?


Six o’clock and the time clock screaming.
Six o’clock and the emails fly.
Six o’clock and the phone is ringing.
Another day closer till I die.


Six o’clock in the morn and evenings.
Six o’clock I work right thru.
Six o’clock and the time is singing.
A struggling life is all there is for you.
