Write Or Work

Writing and working, writing and working Staying busy but thoughts are lurking. So I pick up a pen, write a couple of them Recording and then more bloom in, such a bountiful stem. But really I am trying to work, be a good employee for a good sir. But the brain continues to whir and my straw is in the glass, I must sip and stir. So I’m making my way with a pen and a page That I just may find both work and write to engage. So writing and working, writing and working. I might be busy, Mind, but my ears are up and perking.
