Newly Hired

Ended up in trouble and can't be denied; Was only opening up from deep inside Expressing what my opinion had been Which ended up being a mortal sin. As you read a poem you start to think Should it be thrown the kitchen sink; What had been applied forced rhyme; Some people try to do it all the time. Out several things had started to scope; Should never be giving out false hope And to me it always is very essential Poor performance when no potential. Had gotten in trouble on occasion before End result was making some people sore What they asked everyone what we thought Into a trap and net I had been caught. Why are poetry people willing to gamble When together words surely seem to scramble And merely much attention trying to obtain Ending up driving us precariously insane. It might sound like either off cuff or in cup But can a can of worms soon be opening up That maybe should have remained closed And what was assumed, we also supposed. Good God, why try to take people for granted; Many perfectly potent pills may be planted And through each poem, I will start to browse Maybe more around I should start to carouse. Another thing is required that I want to mention Ranks are unruly when there is much dissension Put poem in any washer then out have wrung And check out guy to see if horrendously hung. Then I really started putting my mind to task; Wondered what now should I begin to ask; To improve a Super Souper what is required? Thought provoking questions by someone newly hired.
