It may be time to remember Pokemon,
and Phantasy Star Online,
two P’s like them peas in that pod,
if you know what I’m sayin’.
Some video games
just take me back,
and it’s scary
how easy it is to stay awake until
5 A.M., eyes itching like mad,
bladder full of piss and heart full of regret
’cause I should take better care of myself.
This weekend
is about a hard reset,
and I hope to fix my schedule
somehow,
some way,
so work doesn’t screw me next week.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
