Why Work? (Free verse) by TheTiredTyrant
Queuing up for jobs that we dont want and demand us, wanna be a shop assistant? lavatory cleaner? spent a bomb on uniforms to justify the low wages. Qualify by turning up and having a smiley faces, and by the way your appearance isn't what we call supportive. You put your image up for sale and the corporation bought it. Just do what we tell you to do and keep the job forever or at least until we sack you because computers do it better.

After a life of tyranny/Tired, exhausted like a granny/ You do not want to do any job/ In Wall street, a restaurant, or a shop?
Then why blame poor computer/
Which serves every one better and better?
