it is soul grey today i wish that i could pretend i was sick and hide away, that i could say

that i was soul sick and sad on earth, that i was a lucky one, that i didn't have to clock in, that i only had to serve the animals, that i only had to serve a few of the animals, that i can't forget so many of the animals i would know in an instant are suffering and that i can't help them and that this is the way the earth goes with all of us depending on it.
