The System

Being so long inside,
I think I may have figured it out.

The people in the system.
4 types:
the ones who
ignore the system
go with the system
stand by the system
fight the system

Those who stand by the system hates those who ignore and fight the system, while working best with those who go with.
Those who ignore the system... well ignore everyone inside the system.
Those who go with the system hates the one who ignore the system and to a small extent those who stand by it.
Those who fight the system hates those who stand by the system while working best with those who go with the system.

And it is because of these 4 personality types that pop out,
that exist the chaos we know as office politics.

Im a fighter. Has been for 3 years, will always be.

Maybe one day, Ill figure out how to win the system.
Till then, I fight.

the little troubles in life

if only I can stop thinking about it,
maybe that will solve the problem.

Has anyone ever stopped,
and think about how society functions?

think about how,

people can pay you thousands,
when you or your assets get destroyed.
but stare funnily at you,
when you ask for a little cash to eat a meal.

we need a license to do anything,
from driving to diving,
but when it comes to really dangerous stunts
like bungee jumping or cliff-diving,
suddenly everything goes.



where luxury food can be so expensive,
that it can easily cost up to 100 times a normal meal.
when the ingredients used are mainly similar,
and it fills you up just the same.

a place
where we constantly say money does not equate happiness,
but we see pure bliss on the winners of the lottery.

a time,
where wearing less in public is recommended,
but wearing nothing is critisized.

a civilisation,
where the exact same type of product,
can cost vastly different prices,
depending on your location.

a society,
where image is king,
and quality takes a back seat.

i think,
we've all gone crazy.

or maybe,
i'm the only one who has.

if only we knew

maybe, sometime, somwhere
in the future of my time,
i will finally understand,
what this has all been about.

or maybe i will understand,
the effects this held,
the significance it holds,
and the lessons it taught.

maybe sometime in my future,
i will finally understand,
why this phase of my life,
has been so.

maybe,
maybe.
