requiem

i am waiting for you to be gone

i will not miss you

i will not miss your cubicles
i will not miss your time clocks

i will not miss the quiet
desperation you inspired
in minds of young and old
indiscriminately

i will not miss your
unfair wages, your greed

i will not miss your
dehumanization, your exploitation

i will not write
eulogy nor elegy

i will rejoice that you are gone
i will rejoice at new sight
i will rejoice for our rebirth.
