The Job Hunt

                                                     by Ken Shiovitz

 

                                           I’m looking now inside myself,

                                           I’m searching deep within.

                                           Can I sit and make some calls

                                           At seven cents a spin?

 

                                           Can I wake up when it's dark

                                           And load some papers in?

                                           Can I stop at each front door

                                           To collection a donation?

 

                                           I ask what I can do for now.

                                           How can I stay and live?

                                           Will I be the paint store guy,

                                           Or more administrative?

 

                                           I can be a people person,

                                           Tho' now I hate them all.

                                           Six months undoes a lifetime

                                           Of confidence and gall.

 

                                           So we all become promoters

                                           On the market of ourselves.

                                           Egos get tied to money,

                                           Tell our minds we're feeling swell.
