But employment must be high
For flocks of fluffy sheep....

With never very much to say

Just to get a measly pay...

The Job For Freddy
Tying knots was the job for Freddy
It didn't pay much, but was steady

Today is the beginning
of an incredible year
I will be more positive
I will find peace with myself
I will find new employment
where i can make more money
I will lose weight and feel better
I will be myself and not

I will write poetry 
and publish more this year......

Premium Member Sacred Meaning
If muses
have sacred meanings
deeper
and before secular evolving purposes,

As ordained vocations
are to painful employment,

Then what music
would
could
should we prefer outside
to health care inside
digest?

Together peaceful
in resonance

Deeper
and before traumatic
warring
wearied
worn out dissonance....

Premium Member Changing Career At 30

So got the job at wholesaler

Kill the Corrupt Rats
Cookery is slavery if you don’t partake of the meal
It becomes foolery if you keep settling the bill
It is misery if you repeat the drill
Familiarity leads to rats chilling in the grill

Employment is exploitation if you can’t get a fair deal
It becomes poverty if you keep taking the pill
It is deprivation with tax deductions on your will
Gullibility that leads the thieves to steal...

Santa Goes High Tech
Santa Goes High Tech

By Elton Camp

It was foggy one Christmas eve
He’d get lost, Santa did believe

To a bright-nosed deer he did say
Rudolph, won’t you lead the way?

So there was a new member of his team
With permanent employment it did seem

When Santa got himself an iPhone
Rudolph’s job was very soon gone

An app he found his sleigh to guide
So poor Rudolph was pushed aside...

Time
The clock ticks
When will the world fix
Everyday concerns
As in, equality for all
And an educational system
Where all learn?

No more Ivy League colleges
For bragging rights
All knowledge is to enhance
Ones insight

For employment
No more unbalanced scales
For opportunity
All shall be able to hear
The bell

The clock ticks
When will people fix
A social system
Where all men mix?...

blue skies....75 degree weather....classic beach music in my ear....lost in the waves' rhythms....

here i am
weekend getaway over
cloudy, drab skies....rain all day....45 degree windy weather....head in the clouds....

it's alright though
for in a few weeks time, 
i am going back!

HOORAY FOR STEADY EMPLOYMENT!
WORK HARD....PLAY HARD....PURE ENJOYMENT!...

Do What You Love
If "play is the work of a child"
Then never grow up,
Except in understanding.
And in learning what you love, 
Search and find it in reality
And do it with enjoyment.

Live out your childhood.

But if work is the stress of life
As an adult, then
Execute strategic planning
"Like a small beginning
to a mighty end". It's your play!
Be happy with your employment.

Make moves for your good....
