A Lone Wolf In My Office
He walked into my office, business in hand,
In denim baggy overalls, a plaid shirt, white painters cap, 
and grandpa's old white leather orthopedic shoes.
If I ever get to the ripe old age of 88,
I want to be this lone wolf silhouette of a man.

A slow...

Premium Member Hostage In An Office
When a department wants to get rid of a worker, 
The processes used can be slow,
Transferring to a place where they will be moot, 
Ignoring everything that they know,

Where they exist, day by day, in an office of work, 
Where their job is not even...

Office Concerto
Hear the keyboard’s staccato concerto,
an unacknowledged music whose echo
is known intimately by dull, bored minds.
Offices, which shut out the light with blinds,
hum with rhythm as background to life’s show....

Your Empty Office Chair
I am broken into pieces
I will miss you my dear friend
As tears are flowing down my cheeks
I can’t believe this is the end

You were such a special soul
To so many out there
My heart broke into a million pieces  
When I looked at your empty...

An elderly man

another six weeks

Overheard by a fly upon the wall

   During Clinton's tete-a-tete with his moll

      Order extra salami

         And a tad more pastrami

Revenge of the Office Copy Machine
Revenge of the Office Copier

By Elton Camp

I started to make copies of an important report.
Just as I commenced, it sent a printed retort.
“Though I don’t contain a single strand of DNA,
I deserve respect and have gone on strike today.”

“I’m tired of hearing humans describe me...

Office Romance
I can tell you want to talk, but don’t know what to say
I better think of something quick, before you go away
I wonder if you think about me, when I’m out of sight
I think about you all the time and can’t get sleep at night
I...

Premium Member Waiting At Doctor's Office
Cody was questioning the lettering on the doctor's plaque on the wall..
He asked me to write letters in cursive which I did ...
He said that the plaque's lettering was not anything like cursive..
Then he wrote in cursive "Once upon a time"
I wrote: "there was"
He wrote:...

Premium Member After the Office Party
I'm  nursing a headache the size of Corfu
my stomach is tied up in knots,
it's the seventeenth time that I've been to the loo
feeling sick with a dose of the trots.
My memory's blank as to how I behaved
but from texts on my phone I can...

Premium Member My Office Revisited
My office
Yo I went into my office, lookin’ for a bone,
I’m in the zone,
Cause I found the chicken that I left next to the phone,
Yo the other day I found a roach that got high off fumes,
The straight perfumes of fruit of the looms,
That I...

I made the bet on who’d win the game
the Bulls looked great; my team played quite lame
dressed in clown’s clothes
with a red clown nose
the whole office will laugh without shame

You are old, Uncle Joseph
You are old, Uncle Joseph,
your short stepping gait
has aroused much comment
in the media of late.

My steps  may be short
but I still get along.
Like Johnny Walker
I'm still going strong.

You are old, Uncle Joseph.
If  I err, please forgive..
Your memory, they say,
somewhat resembles a sieve.

Being forgetful...
