“The Daily Grind by Stewart Stafford
Crooked broker flashes teeth,
Cannibal flesh on their napkin,
The traffic jam zombie shuffle,
Stars, take me home quickly.
Follow the screaming off a cliff,
Panic echoes as the land recoils,
Sea spray whipping up at you fast,
Splash down into drowning lessons.
See a shark fin’s scything slash,
Fangs picked clean with a toothpick,
Dark eyes wander to exposed midriff,
Chomp, and all the problems cease.

“Despite what people tell you, what you do for the majority of the day is who you are. For most people, that is their job, and if you’re not careful now, if you’re not putting your entire effort into every subject to see which ones suit you best, if you’re not taking advantage of every opportunity with the time you have right now while you're still young, you’ll never have a good understanding of yourself or your gifts. You’ll wind up picking a major at college that you don’t feel passionate about, because you don’t even know what your passion is.”

“And through the years I notice
Subtle changes all around me.
The people come and go like the ebb and flow of the tides.
Those who remain seem physically changed.
Their skin becomes pale and sallow, almost transparent.
Their hairline recedes and begins to thin,
their jaw slackens as their bellies spread
From the endless sitting in chairs
for meetings about subjects that five years from now
will only be a distant memory.”

“Walking around Wall Street during the weekend, one gets the impression that the world’s affairs have been settled once and for all, that the age of work is finally over and that humanity has moved on to its next stage.”
