The Man

Beep! Beep! Beep! My ears finally get through to my head that I am supposed to arouse from my deep and quite place of sleep. My eyes eventually start to open as I wipe away the blurry sleep from my eyes. Each blink from that moment is at least ten seconds long. So I roll off the bed and fall five feet onto the alarm clock and crush it.

I am totally another person when I arouse. I like to call him frustrated because it is very frustrating to be in a perfect world of rest and contentment where there is no pain and no awareness of the suffering around me or in me and then awake into a cruel world that awakes you with loud shrieks of beeping at an hour that is so early that even the birds aren’t chirping yet.

The freaking birds are sleeping people! What the heck is your problem!

It’s the man. The man is taking control of our lives and ruling us by machines such as alarm clocks, coffee makers, ovens, phones, cars, T.V., computers and microwaves. Now I am not against these wonderful machines that give me life. No, that’s not it at all. I am against the schedule created by the man that the whole world functions by and runs their life by.

Dear Man,

Why are you so inconsiderate of others? Every day I lose hours of sleep because of you and I will never get to go back in time and sleep them out. Where did you get the nerve Man? Did you get an A on a paper one day and decide, “ I’m awesome, and with my awesomeness I will create a system that the whole world will function by like zombies not knowing which way to go unless the ‘Man’ (me) tells them where to go.” That’s ridiculous Man. I bet you’re the one who created the one-way streets. What happened to our individual rights and freedoms? So much for a democracy, this is a camouflage unitary government, and once I find you Man with your secrete unitary government be afraid.

Your enemy,
The Charm

In conclusion we are becoming a part of a system that takes away from our sleep and I don’t like it.

I am going to kill the Man.
