I'm a Mindless Machine
August 10, 2009
My eyelids are drooping
My body feels gloopy
I'm so tired I could fall flat on my face
My arms are wet noodles
I can't even doodle
And my legs won't even take one single step
My mind is moving slowly
I think it's going backwards
It's falling behind in the human race
The computer in front of me
It's a little mind-numbing
Swallowing up my brain completely whole
My fingers are dropping
Like bird frass on the keyboard
I can't keep myself from stopping
Someone please help me
I'm glued to the screen
Someone yank me away
I'm a mindless machine
