working
behind the cardboard
multi-purpose office desk I’m
stalling seconds into
minutes, hours weary
not to try too hard or not to try too less
here comes the supervisor, I’m quick to grab a pen
and sketch some tables weary
not to try too hard or not to try too less


lunchbreaking
behind the plastic
spotless windowpanes I’m
trading crucial smiles with
crucial people weary
not to try too hard or not to try too less
here comes the supervisor, "what a lovely dress
you're wearing !" weary
not to try too hard or not to try too less

working again
behind the air conditioned
keyboard-powered office desk I’m
stealing corporate seconds
minutes, hours weary
not to try too hard or not to try too less
here comes the supervisor, I’m quick to punch some keys
and summon figures weary
not to try too hard or not to try too less
