I'm sorry you'd a bad weekend Joe.
The poem you wrote is sad, but beautiful, though.

Hi all, I hope everyone is doing well. I have not posted much in the past year or so. I wrote this yesterday after a terrible experience at work. ...I work in an absolutely terrible gossip mill, why can't anyone mind their own business?

I helped me vent some internal anxiety. I even thought about posting it on the bulletin board on the wall at work.



My Treacherous Colleagues

Disguised as friends
Vultures circle overhead
Awaiting my demise
To rejoice over my corpse
With their mocking screech

A merciless pack of wolves
Watching for a moment of weakness
Fails to disguise its malice
Behind a pointed grin.
Taunting in growling whispers
Drooling fangs seek to devour their own kind.

Like a hungry fox in the woods
Ears turn to the slightest sound
Of another’s misfortune

He said, she said,
Parasitic gossip feeders,
You all know who you are.




Joe
