"Fitter Happier"
more productive
comfortable
not drinking too much
regular exercise at the gym (3 days a week)
getting on better with your associate employee contemporaries
at ease
eating well (no more microwave dinners and saturated fats)
a patient better driver
a safer car (baby smiling in back seat)
sleeping well (no bad dreams)
no paranoia
careful to all animals (never washing spiders down the plughole)
keep in contact with old friends (enjoy a drink now and then)
will frequently check credit at (moral) bank (hole in wall)
favours for favours
fond but not in love
charity standing orders
on sundays ring road supermarket
(no killing moths or putting boiling water on the ants)
car wash (also on sundays)
no longer afraid of the dark
or midday shadows
nothing so ridiculously teenage and desperate
nothing so childish
at a better pace
slower and more calculated
no chance of escape
now self-employed
concerned (but powerless)
an empowered and informed member of society (pragmatism not idealism)
will not cry in public
less chance of illness
tires that grip in the wet (shot of baby strapped in back seat)
a good memory
still cries at a good film
still kisses with saliva
no longer empty and frantic
like a cat
tied to a stick
that's driven into
frozen winter sh** (the ability to laugh at weakness)
calm
fitter, healthier and more productive
a pig
in a cage
on antibiotics
Followed By System Of A Down
Fish that don't drown,
Life in a bubble jungle,
I wouldn't frown
Not short another chuckle,
...
We're left with no arms,
Right in the power struggle,
We're left with no arms,
Right in the power struggle.
It's Not That Bad
Gotta quit typing so much
Fix Fence
Fix Roof
Get Baggage
Kitchen Counter
Kitchen Sink
New Flooring
Decide my vote
Kick Dog
Why do I keep typing?
System Of A Down Again
We're left with no arms,
Right in the power struggle!!!

Wow.
I think I might NOT share that poem with my creative writing students! :-)
It really makes you think, though. I can't even keep up with a ridiculous ideal! ha ha
Did you only write "It's Not That Bad"?
did you write the radiohead?
scarily exactly descriptive
