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

 Shelter 31.07.21

she

Needs shelter

doesn’t believe anyone can  help

She’s in so much pain

I look again pale blue eyes

Filling with tears

She doesn’t want me “involved

But I see her fear

She says she will manage

Can’t change the way it feels

I put my arms around  her

Know you want to live’

Can you just forgive yourself

Stand behind me

I’ll take the  hit for you

You’re a woman

I am a man


Lean on me

In have no fear

Stay near

Pale blue eyes fill with tears

I am still here

Shelter: giving temporary protection from bad weather or danger. 2) demon with a hair trigger temper

I am your shelter
