A Swiss Cheese Story With Deceiving Hormones


A Swiss Cheese Story With Deceiving Hormones
By: Tyler Ross

A true brain-melting discovery,
seeping its nonfunctioning ooze inside me.
Numb.
Hanging my head at the misdirection
that just snapped my neck.
Autumn is here or is it there?
Summer is beginning.
I no longer care.
Let go from the bowl of soul.
Stupidity wins again,
as I sit disillusioned to the news.
Unemployed with some feelings I’d like to lose.
My boss, my old boss can’t spill the truth.
So we broke the register, together... 
Now you want to treat me like a youth?
I thought this was Australia?
No night shifts,
but a place so laid back that the holes in your story
regurgitate too, cutting you more slack
then, severing my source of income
a month before I head home.
This was all that I had.
