Ongoing sporadic journal of the overeducated, and underemployed. The title derived from Coupland’s description of cubicle land; the corporate ghetto. Random photos and thoughts. Left the ghetto, never happier. This still a work in progress

Holding-27.01.20
holding our place
Holding: grasp, carry, or support with one's arms or hands 2) be able to bear the weight of a person or thing 3) in possession of drugs 4) to keep something

rain pouring

silently
soundproof windows
stale sterile air
holding me
hand out
a young woman in cocktail attire
weeps inconsolably
holding tongue
from a room
Roar of a game show
holding
her hand
squeezes my hand
and quietly weeps
mumbling prayers
holding
tight
holding
desperately
holding
lovingly
just holding on
to each other
and
holding on
to life
