Poem: I have been woke

Poem: I have been woke

I stand woke at work
In the present state of pantless mediocrity
Observing others with far greater aspirations and means

In my wakedness
I understand our days to be
Brightly elucidating
Until I am born the meekest
And have completed my final trip around the Sun
To become the dream that is shared.

How many others? Rebel and Empire?
A trinity? A majority? All?

Must I wait.

Cold at my feet.
Sun on my face. Warmth.
Complacency less an option

Clothes would be nice, but...

My ego is yours and you know it.
