having taught me very little
and I find myself standing
in a dark and gloomy bedsit
with a sudden realisation
that I need to waste some money
on some little green binliners
for the wasted food bin
the bins that we all have
sat on our kitchen window sills
for the food that we have wasted
the food that we have bought
but the bits we didn't eat
and which I went and paid for
with the cash that I had earnt
from the job that I have
that I didn't really want
the cash that was left
after they took away some tax
and some national insurance
and a small contribution
for a pension I'll receive
more than a life-time away
from this job I didn't want
nor do I think I could improve on
because I have no experience
or have the wrong qualifications
with my incomplete degree
which is putting me in debt
of monsterous proportions
which I don't think I'll pay back
because the job that I have
doesn't take me to the threashhold
where repayment is required
so they tell me not to worry
and to keep on studying hard
and to keep on with the job
the job I didn't want
the job I never dreamt of
but the job that I have
but that I never really wanted
but the job that I have
that I never really wanted
the job that I have...
that...
I think I'll go back to bed!
