2000
Dear Diary,
I have discovered that you can't always get what you want. But if you try, sometimes you just might find you get what you need. Or was that the Rolling Stones?
Here is a poem I wrote called Office Drones:
People milling by
Headed somewhere
Do they want to be there
Is it just a living
Is it a passion
A suit and tie or is it fashion
Do they like their coworkers
Or loathe them in secret
Are they filled with regret
Do they feel appreciated
Or undervalued and forgotten
Do they worry all night or not very often
Should they have followed another path
Do they go home and cry
Hate their life and want to die
Or go home and rejoice
That work is over for another day
Do they think about 401k
Or stealing money
Or running wildly into the street
Working to put foot on the table and shoes on their feet
Do they dream of starting their own company
Being in charge and being the boss
Would that be a benefit or a loss
Is their CEO respectable or a selfish coward
Instructing their minions to do their dirty work
Smiling in your face while acting like a jerk
Will it ever end
Will it ever get better
Should I update my resume and cover letter
