Lewis Nyaga Poet I do not know?

The Quitters Podium

here at gadgados we keep loosing them employees
the other day me was so frustrated threatened a quit
the MD heard of it i was summoned to the big office

whats the problem.. don't complain about your duties
do it this way do it that way accomplish it this way finito..
the MD didn't mince his words and i begged for a better pay

i begrudging backlog and overload and appreciation
him assuring we need you.. i never quit so i took a leave
am back to the hassle and tassle as i look for daily bread

of providence and work and great redemptive power 
the power and ability to pay my bills thou an artist..
it inst easy living by art in this beloved nation of art

i am not a quitter but i nearly quit and weeks later
am handed a letter its a promotion and better pay
dated the same day i had wanted to resign from duty

He noticed your ability when brought to his or her attention and realize they need to pay heed to the good ones.
