"I am late" you think. And you drive just a little bit faster, just a touch more aggressively.
"I am tired, I need sleep". And you take just a couple more pills to help.
"There is work to do", so uncooked meals have to be swallowed on the run, sleep has to wait, risks have to be taken, shortcuts to be made and safety sacrificed.
"I need an edge" you say, grabbing extra strong caffeine and enhancement pills by the handful.
But deep inside, in a place you try to push away when you are laying awake at night, in your thought so secret you would never even admit their existence even to yourself you know why.
