proverbial by nate logan

11/17/2016

 
The straw that broke the camel’s back
is the same one I drew that one time
no one wanted to do the difficult thing.
Now it’s in a museum at a mid-major
university, next to an unflattering picture 
of me. One of these things (the straw,
the picture of me, me) is omnipresent: 
some serious philosophical territory.
Someone “into analytics” is certainly
a type of person who exists, but never 
flexes their interest for humankind. 
Our tour guide tries to hide this secret
love from us. He avoids the direct light.
It's like people only do these things because 
they can get paid. And that's just really sad.
