Office Haiku
May 17, 2021
Million black keys click
embossed with small white letters
their words are not clean.
Shiny whiteboards glare
Striped with tape they glower
And tell us to work.
Tiny desks close in
cubicles gray, green and brown
keeping us on task.
Styrofoam cups steam
their contents a small release,
that never lasts long.
Monitors sunny
blast away the daily rise.
Replaced with logos.
Cheap pens, business pants
pink paper pads a phone and
me, another tool.
