shhh, i'm thinking

i start thinking about
think tanks.
when someone says i work
for a think tank
and tells me it's non profit,
i say, really.
you sit around a table
and think all day
and you're not making
any money.
what's the world coming to.
so what do you think about?
they usually shrug.
you know, stuff.
world hunger, poverty,
the environment.
asteroids hitting the earth.
things that are never going
to happen, or change
for the better.
do you get a headache
thinking all day
about things you can't do
anything about.
yeah, sometimes.
but we take a lot of breaks
and if it's nice
out we open a window to let
some air in.
