Poems
Aug 2015
It's Time
Vicious clawing, climbing, cutting
Hands are clenched, jaws are jutting
Cooperation, let's get past this part
Pounding, pounding, head and heart
Wheezing, wincing, whines and warning
I hear a brand new era's dawning
Unconvincing, boss man's patter
Time to act? It doesn't matter
Work as I will or try as I might
There's no mobility up, am I right?
Been ten years on this ******* job
And you treat me like a rookie slob
Saved the day on more than one occasion
There's
no way
you don't owe me compensation
Time to look around and see what I can get
Been saying that for years but I haven't started yet
Ugh. Working for a living. Time to update the ol' CV.
