The Bossman
November 24, 2015
Do not create.
Do not leak your innovation.
Plug yourself up.
Shut yourself in.
And do not speak.
Do not speak.
Do not breathe:
the clean air may just inspire you.
Do not think in colors
or symbols
other than the
preapproved list
assigned to you at birth.
Do not love yourself.
Hate yourself.
You are ugly.
You are ugly.
Repeat it:
You are ugly.
These are the rules.
Follow the rules.
Listen to me.
Believe in me.
I am the Bossman.
And I control you and all you do.
because
(guess what?)
you
let
me.
