Rock Bottom

By Khali Raymond

A wise man once said that rock bottom is when you're mad enough to scream but sad enough to tear. Have you ever been there? I know I have. Sometimes, falling off is the best. When you are put into a situation where you are stripped of all privileges and insights, you have no choice but to get in survival mode and focus on making it through the day. The ego needs a reality check every now and again. Once you get through rough times, you'll find that it prepared you for the prosperous ones...

Book preview

Poverty’s Player

See, in this system…

You’re considered a chess piece

Don’t believe me, well

Aren’t you in for a shocking revelation?

Shut your mouth, get that money out

When Uncle Sam says pay up, don’t give him recoil

Rise at five in the morn, shower and brush those teeth

Dress up, wolf two bananas with a bowl of Cheerios

and a glass of freshly pressed oranges to follow

Kiss your partner and children goodbye, hop into your newly

bought CLK to shout rudely at traffic for the next hour and a half

Arrive at the workplace

Duck and dodge rowdy coworkers gossiping about how off March Madness was

Smile at the boss you dislike while fixing them a cup of coffee

Return to the desk and reply to emails for an hour

Sit through meaningless meetings and draft reports

nowhere near their deadlines of completion

Rinse and repeat until seven in the evening, go home

Consume dinner, sip beer while catching the game

Rinse and repeat days like these for the next fifty years

until your body mass index is so disproportionate that it’ll

be a no-brainer to come down with some sort of

health aliment and be dead before seventy

see, society rather have you attend school for years

accrue thousands of dollars in debt

become a slave, unable to think for yourself
