Job Description

"Broken pieces of a clean-cut man. Nobody knows of his thoughts, not even him...."

Written by Jacob Ibrag

Broken pieces of a clean-cut man.

Nobody knows of his thoughts, not even him.

Buried in his corporate suit. Burning the midnight oil,

only to dissolve into exhaustion. A world influencing his beliefs,

beliefs influenced by the next trending thing. Disconnected from the

soul. Philippe Petit wouldn’t ever go for it. Wireless strings tight around

his neck. A Windsor knot to match the job description. Desensitized

and unaware. A human being who experiences happiness

through drawn-out textbook definitions.
