Auditors Brain: Construction Site Toilet

I did the deed and will be finishing on 17 December 2010. Now time to find a new job. This could be messy. In loving memory of my time as an auditor, I thought I would post the following poem. It was written on the toilet while I was working at a construction site in Varsity Lakes. Enjoy.

Auditor’s Brain: Construction Site Toilet

Live life with the same disconnection that exists while watching a movie
Revel in the sensation of feeling and existence, not only in those sensations that we
are conditioned to believe are positive.
Let your nose be rubbed into life
while your there take a whiff
then a breath.
Do not let comfort make you fat and lazy
Do not let your convictions hold you back.
Just change them and if that doesn’t work change them back.
Live by your own rules and only live your own life.
Take the risk
Work hard
Save the money
Throw it away
Roll in the dirt
Do it again
Let it change you
Be stiff and bre-
ak your
arm
The healing has fused the bones and made me a cripple
Play it like a video game.
Get yourself into trouble
Get hurt
Turn off the console
Laugh about misfortune
Turn it back on
Do it again
Servant in your old clothes
Not in your new.
Look out the window
Decide it looks shit
Close the doors and windows
Turn on the air con
Let the artificial lights keep us warm
Paint a picture
Stick it in the window
Gaze out the window
Looks much better
Just can’t walk outside
Close eyes
Let the dream take you there
HA.

Hopefully, this means that I will start to take my own advice.
