Corporate Conversion

The corporation offers logo wear Dazzling subsidized cafes State of the art fitness centers They bring the dentist, dry cleaners And hair stylist to you No need to leave our campus Ever! Never! Never! You won’t be able to resist “Resistance is futile” sayeth the Borg But do strive to maintain A healthy work/life balance! Productivity depends on it! We are a big happy family! With a bottom line You won’t see it coming You won’t know it’s happening A slow chronic progression to blindness Like whiskey, the collective seduces you Along the way you will be anointed With undeniable proof of your value: Bonuses and stock options land in your lap Awards and AmEx gift cards appear on your desk Until you can no longer abjure ‘Tis best to surrender and demur You have incorporated into the corporation Your cultish obedience has turned To Stockholm Syndrome There, there now...Reeeeeeeeeeelllaaaaaaaaaaxxxxxxxx Don’t struggle! Do abide! There, there now...doesn’t that feel better?

Hi Rebecca, Welcome to Poetry Soup. It will be a delight to read and become familiar with your poems in the future. As for now, I will greet you with the same smile others passed when I first joined the soup. Wishing you and your poetry the best. I hope you get to meet all the nice poets, like me.
