Productivity - Color Theory

There was a time in history

Your next meal was a mystery

If you were lucky you might catch a fish

But we have Amazon now

No need for brains or brawn now

Your wish list to your door in just one click

Pointless productivity

I sit behind a screen

My fingers span the inches

In a blaze of inactivity

Captivity

For hours every day

I dare to call it work

Relentless innovation

Requires concentration

To thrive in this knowledge economy

My digital creations

Have no physical manifestation

I deal in intellectual property

Our avatars

In silhouette

Addicted to

The internet

We type and type

But never sweat

Our bellies stuffed

Perpetually

Defining sloth

And gluttony

We die too soon

But live like kings

For now let’s just enjoy it

No reason to avoid it

Who needs an extra gear to coast downhill?

Succumb, my couch potato

Adopt my humble credo

And watch the world revolve while we sit still

Pointless productivity

I sit behind a screen

My fingers span the inches

In a blaze of inactivity

Creativity

I exercise my mind

And laugh to call it work
