Smells like power
But tastes like chicken
Administrative duties
Make my pulse quicken

Repression wears a tie
Arrogance sports hose
Make Bossy smile
That’s how the garden grows

Timeclock sphincter
Clamped down tight
Constipation of thought
Absence of light

Artistic fire snuffed
Sculptor’s hand inert
Bottom line worship
Trade the smock for the shirt

Corporate aorta
Chocked with fat pride
With toad-lust for...

TWO WEEKS GONE BY,

AND WE EARNED ANOTHER PAYCHECK.

NOT MUCH TO SAY,

WITH TONS OF BILLS TO PAY.

WHAT DO WE SAY WITH SO MUCH TO PAY?

AND A WEARY SOUL.


LET US RENEW OUR LIVES,

AND BRING NEW PURPOSE TO EACH...

stationed at kissing desks 
I feel the implode of anxiety
within this sweathouse of labor and woe

telephones chime
with the sweet rhythm of security

but then what do I know? 
I'm just a hard working blue collar Joe
whose bank account is never low.
I've had all...

Do you make sure to tap all the dirt from your spikes with your bat,
 even if it takes two full-length TV time-outs for you to do so?

Do you cross yourself once, twice, thrice,
 or perhaps fidget and fiddle with the letters on your uniform,

I am the senior cashier in a store.

Most of the time my job is just a bore.

My co-workers are great

So the job I can't hate.

The paycheck is all I'm really here for....

AND THERE’S NO PAY CHECK ON FRIDAY

I revel in close calls
And what I do takes balls
I’m  comfortable hanging by a thread
While I eliminate the thought of my being dead

I swim through rough waters against the tide
And just keep repeating “Satan is on my side”
One...

Pulling out my card.
Doesn’t seem too hard.
When I’m convinced of my wealth.
Despite new books on my shelf.
Despite sunglasses that are new.
I assumed by account was tried and true.
But when the balance is none.
I find myself feeling undone.
I want to go back.
To stop myself from getting...

My savings

Work, as fun as death
More, more, more, they want always
Sweet relief, paycheck....
