RETIREMENT
What an *******!
Tug of war with credit card?
Accosting probable provost?
“Don’t ******* a yeti!”
Three decades in
Day out, day in
Doing my job well enough
I must tread lightly
(I want to SHOUT!
Throw a shoe at the speaker;
Wear purple [or a big] hat
Maybe a big purple hat!)
No. Slow down. Head down.
Know your place
Just one more year
Then the world: my oyster.
(BTW: I hate oysters
Allergic to shellfish…then…
“Shnick!” Take my helmet off;
Finally free of toxic environment!)
