7 Haikus about Work

Worry

Fuel gauge on empty

And what of the advent bill?

My wallet is thin.

Plenty

Marks of distention

Across heavy, doughy breasts

The infant chortles.

Work

Dancing to and fro

Orders, drinks, food, and the check

It still haunts my dreams.

Staff Meeting

Pressed blue suit, black pants

Objectivity and sales

Rice on the table.

District Manager

He looks at small things

Trying to amuse himself

His job is a bore.

Uniform

Affiliation

Not by spirit but by dress

We all seem the same

Servitude

Odd conversation

With these fat, needy b******s

"What can I get you?"
