#HustlePorn
You are a part of hustle porn
having once taken the dark oath
in a silent swearing-in
You surrender to twenty-hour days
missing every sunset in the week
You are schlepping overnight – there
imbibed upon their dripped breasts –
be they Yahoo’s or Spotify’s squeeze
in their rule of the way to work
You are pressed against the deadlines
with your suckled infant face
You dreamt of electric sheep
grazing on forever-rain rooftops
because you fell asleep reading
a novel – because you cannot sleep
Because your eyes are glued wide
open – because
You suffer hustle porn
