to get to
the good stuff-

-seeking network
technicians
to fix
my spider web
of lies

good benefits,
great travel,
and a free
lollipop or two
...if you smile
for the dentist

flexible hours
that bend
all the rules

collar-up
your noose-knot
tie-
fancy fresh
and fancy-free
with a 13
stanza melody

overtime
is forbidden-
overdrive,
encouraged

put your name
on the dotted line-
time to revel
in constant
employment,
and inconsistent
memos...

...folded sharp,
like daggers
on your skin
