The Things We'll Do For Warmth


Cuppa Heat

Hot water in mug
mug in hands; mug nestles face
body still not warm.

My Advice to Certain Co-Workers

Eat hearty breakfasts
comprised of grains, not shullbit
so you can be smart.

This Ain't Me But ... Tuesdays Are Forever


Eternity Looms

Longingly I stare
into space - no lover's eyes -
wishing to Escape.

Mundane Thoughts Brought To You By ...



Monday

Job hatred rampant.
Menial grunt work endless.
Wish I could just quit.

03 November 2009

Full Moon. Full Tilt Craziness.


They Should Just Close This Office When the Moon Is Full

When the moon is full
the days stretch while folks play dumb.
Nightmares in daylight.

26 October 2009

I dunno. Dot. Dot. Dot.



I've Nothing Good To Say Today So ...

Forever Friday

Am I Done Yet?!

Forever won't end
and it feels like that today -
Friday's not yet free.

20 October 2009

Dumbed Down Danita



Hope. It's Found Some Other Place.

Why even bother
with makeup or fancy clothes?
I'm at a dead end.

15 October 2009

Better In an Instant


Thank You, Prince of Peace Tea

I have a head cold
and ginger honey crystals
cloak my throat in warmth.

12 October 2009

This Is How I Felt Regarding the 5pm Hour-Long Conference Call

Tell Me Lies, Tell Me Sweet Little Lies

Leaders who placate
waste good time, which is money
pontificating.

09 October 2009

H1N1 Minus the Ones Equals



Hell Naw!
Nasty folks spread germs.
I sanitize them away,
and pray for my health.

28 September 2009

I Had Gone the Entire Morning Without Cussing ...



... and Then This Guy Shows Up, But Won't Shut Up

There he stands, straddled
talking bombastically
invading silence.

24 September 2009

It's Tea-licious! It's Tea-lightful! It's Tea-lovely!


I Love Tea Because

Dry tea leaves infuse
themselves with milk and sugar.
I am transported.

11 September 2009

Friday Provides


The Fleeting Freedom

When Friday arrives
I reflect with a sigh. With
this job I endure.

28 August 2009

What'd You Say?

Lend Me Your Ear

Oh good. Friday's here!
Less than a day's work to do
flies by with good tunes.

25 August 2009

Livin' On a Prayer



Only Tuesday

Not e'en half way there
Whoa! Livin' on a prayer!
I'll make it I swear.

20 August 2009

Stop Being So Spoiled. The World Is Not A Burger King

Everything Can't Go Your Way

Believe it or not
what goes around comes around.
Time for folks to grow.

19 August 2009

Wednesdazed


Whiling Away

The time flies and yet
the days, the weeks are endless.
All work, no rewards.


06 August 2009

Nap Tuck


Coma Coda

The day's conclusion,
right after lunch, is just a
dreary illusion.



04 August 2009

The New Suffragette


Tuesday's Loiterer

I suffer this day,
save for moments of prayer,
the right to take leave.

24 July 2009

This Haiku Is Brought To You By Shania Twain


Friday, You're Still the One

Looks like we made it.
Look how far we've come, baby ...
After all this time.

16 July 2009

Headphones.


Whilst @ Work, Tunes Are Crucial
Waiting on a friend,
the Stones roll 'til five pm.
Done got my jam on.

15 July 2009

Akin to Loitering



I Can't Wait Forever

Time just lets me wait.
Idling. Whiling. Desperate.
For the week to end.

13 July 2009

The Wall


Monday's Causes of Death

Sat down. System down.
Meeting drones. Copier jams.
Work is done. Now what?

10 July 2009

When "Polar Opposites" Doesn't Even Begin To Cover It



Barry Sheryl White Crow

Pandora funny.
Sheryl as Barry? Funky.
Heck of a mash-up.

07 July 2009

Tuesdays. Great.


Dear Tony the Tiger: Wrong Finger

Even with the sun
brightly shining and my mood
carefree, Tuesday sucks.

06 July 2009

Nita in Wonderland

Reckon I'll Just Daydream Instead

Oh how hours loom
when a new week starts. Time slinks
ever so slowly.

25 June 2009

Guh.



Even Thursday's Too Far From the Weekend

Why do the short weeks
always feel like the longest?
Purgatory rules.

11 June 2009

Turning ...


... the Other Cheek

What is tolerance?
A justification to
endure the endless?

10 June 2009

And Time. Goes By. So Slowly.



The Hours

I just be sittin',
remainin' the same just like
Otis on his bay.

09 June 2009

A Rainy Night in 'Delphia



Totally a Nap Day

Days like this I miss
when it's sleepy time down South
and the thunder rolls.

08 June 2009


Today: Con -

Confusion rampant;
conundrums unfurl at work.
Condescension? Bunk.

Done Already


TGIF and All

Friday, thank goodness!
Not in recent history
has time wasted so.

01 June 2009

Tongue Bitten for Tongue Bitchin'.


Today: Pro-

Profanity reigns!
Probably 'cause I failed to
protest what is true.

19 May 2009

My Very Own Situational Irony


You Ain't Kiddin'!

Deadlock victim. Word.
You know you're in for it when
software jokes on you.

18 May 2009

Spazzed



We Got to Pray Just to Make It Today

Today feels wasted
already. Before it ends
I pray to endure.

13 May 2009

Outlook.

Do Better, Be Better

Trying something else
called positive outlookin'
because hey, why not?



12 May 2009

Na na na boo boo ...

I Can't Hear You

To have and to hear
melodies that carry time
makes a better day.


07 May 2009

Too Hot To Handle

The Heat Is On

Back from vacation
my skin still feels warm sizzling
from the Nola sun.

21 April 2009

Steady Tryin' to Save My Mind



Ah, Productivity


This is what I got
So work could be "easier."
Two screens. Twice the Work.

02 April 2009

No Way Out


How Can I Think Outside the Box When I'm Stuck In a Cube?

Stuck inside the cube
A worker bee squirms, longing
to Spring out, be free.
