Same Day, Different Day

Same Day, Different Day


These days the days bleed together not along with but into the weekends
which aren’t even weekends with this new schedule are just a blip on Thursday
which is my Monday it feels like yesterday was Monday which is my Friday one of the best
times I ever had at work was when I spent all of Thursday which at the time was my Friday
thinking it was Wednesday which was my Thursday and so at the end of the day I said
see you tomorrow and someone else said no you won’t that was a great day these days
it tends to go the other way when coworkers ask me how I’m doing I shrug and say I’m here
like some Cartesian Flintstones character it’s a living therefore I am a Facebook acquaintance
once coined the term Paycheck Depression as an alternative to the term Functional Depression
in order to distinguish the generation of capital from human functions like socializing and creating art
so that’s what I mean when I say I’m here though I don’t know if that’s what comes across
class consciousness being a bit sleepy at 6 a.m.
