     Gazing past glass upon a face
     whose urgent hands, like semaphore,
     signal passing of my days
     as one oh three greets 1:04
     Behind my desk dust settles, nestles
     comforming to Sir Isaac's law, 
     whilst sun shines bright through tinted glass.
     Why must I sit here on my...
     chair?

Ergh. Jeez Mr E, work's depressing enough without reading about it! Still, got your point across fine. ;)

Depressing, but well communicated! Maybe you were writing this interesting poem from that chair and on that desk, so maybe it was all worth it.

It must be very depressing watching life pass by without feeling that you have done anything really useful during the day. I often think: If you were dead and God said: "I'll give you one more day back on earth" - how would you spend it? Because you have the chance right now to do the same don't you?
Oh -

To put things another way: Why worry about death? Some people are already dead on this earth.

Phil: Thank you  
 
Mia: Yes i was, and since then even more dust has settled 
 
Josie: Doing something about it now would involve walking out on my job and i need to feed the family. 
 
Thank you all.
