Premium Member Work Day
Here catch a glimpse sure: Office hours kills time; KPI allure, Profit for work chimes. Work day nine to five: Meetings and sales calls; Business goals arrive, Make money install. See people play games: Drive away panic; Bitter taste of gall, Office politics. Cliques of same fancy: Greedy feuds confront; Bleed cotton candy, Noisy back and front. Be wary of lies: Half truths play poker; Good and ugly cries, Wild card and joker. Be...

The Road My Father Paves
Remember seeing my father coming Home from work on his bicycle And it was a cold and rainy day And he was soaking from the drizzle And I can tell he was getting sick But he would never once complain And he would have fever to his bones And get dress and go back to work again My father was strong as a...

The Orange Seed
I came upon a tribe one day in a land not far away where everyone gets what they need from juices of an orange seed Some who drank the juice had died and so the tribe felt satisfied that they had weeded out the weak with the help of orange seed Some fell asleep the whole day long for orange juice was very strong and...

In My Community
Our Ancestors fought to the death, Just so we can live a brighter day, So before you light up that blunt of meth, Think about what you’re giving away, It was a glad day in history when Obama rose to victory, The first black president was all we knew, Dark skin is in! Haven’t you heard? That even in our community, You can...

Unfulfilled Potential
Resting in the dark, soon to stir and waken the yearnings of my heart the walls are left still shaken Dawn brings new life and banishes the old the day may yet bring more strife May yet leave hope in the cold Targets for the day just another morning routine Living according to pay Just today; postponing the dream The sun says it is noon and the...

The Layoff
more the norm than the exception in this wonderful capitalist rape room where coming into work can mean leaving early without a job & a pink slip, with a pat on the back & a “thanks for being such a good worker”--- armed with all the facetious nonsense that emanates from the mouths of higher-ups, whose jobs are just a little more secure...

Work
All day long we toil in a shop which we clean from the bottom to the top, Like bees in a colony or ants in a nest Back and forth , all day long ,trying to do our best We rise early and work our day away serving others but never getting any rest We waste...

Not For Naught
What you do here, is your job, life, future and health. Without each one of these, there will be no wealth. Apply and learn each day that you live and breathe. Give your all in whatever you do, protect with a sheave. Don’t ever think, what you do, is just a plain job. If you let this happen, it is...

A Late Night Call
A cooling ev’ning eased the heat of day, Too bright the sun that withers on the skin Throughout the working day, no words can say The pain of being stuck in work within. To work all day when summer paints the sky, Unkind it seems and never truly fair; The promised cash that reasons justify, Is no salvation to a greater care. The...
