Jealousy At Work
dizain
Good grief! in our office - a predator
lurking about without saying hello.
Lack of discernment veiled its character -
pale green with greed and a jaundiced yellow.
Spite voiced hate through this parasite-fellow.
A new employee makes department head,
my talents ignored, I was seeing red!
Dissing a "freshmen" who deserved a break,
I was obliged, with envy overfed
to bid spite "Goodbye." Romance was at stake.
