Swimming in skylines


Swimming in the skyline

Pools

More like wells

Wells of spinning

No

Stop

Wells of dripping

Drip

Drop

Dripp

 

Hi my name is kacie

And I think I’m qualified for this job

“Where do see yourself in 5 years”?

I want to say I am myself

And where I could be in 5 years is where I could be in

2 seconds

And today is not really a thing

And time doesn’t exist

Tick

Tock

I’m on a spaceship

Tick

Tock

Space

I say I see myself starting my own business and I tell them hopefully with this company I can learn...

I tell them

I am a valuable asset

I tell them

I can do this job

I tell them

Ill show up for this

Reliable I mean

You know what I mean

 I’m rubbing off on you

Don’t you see?

See this is really me

Can you see it?

Can you feel it?

I play the part

 

That was act one ladies and gentlemen

I’m pulling on the curtains

 

There is no act one

 

I say thank you for your time
