Job interviews



The Interview

1.Can’t stand stupid questions no more,
If I hear one, I’ll walk out that door!
Can’t stand insistent stairs no more,
In small rooms on the first building floor.

2.”Where will you be in 7 years’ time?”
With me it gets better and better, like wine;
“What would I think of you, were I your manager?”
Not much, since to them I’m just one more stranger.

3.”What animal would you be if you had the choice?”
A white deaf one, so I can’t hear your voice;
“What’s your favorite color, the hue of a winner?”
To cast back your face, I would be silver.

4.”What’s your best asset, the one that makes you true?”
Patience, for staying here and listening to you;
“And the worst flaw, which you want to overcome?”
The will of setting bombs and being quite done.

5.”What do you expect from a working place?”
Pay-day, but I’ll say I’d love to see your face;
“What would make you leave, the thing you can’t stand?”
You ask the same thing twice, let’s give it an end.

6.”Why would we chose you, you and no other?”
Because I don’t talk much, so I won’t be a bother;
“Why has your attitude become so defensive?”
How should it be, since yours is offensive?

7.I tried to learn all answers, to know them by heart,
My body betrays me, it looks like a dart!
Nothing is good, not a single thing I utter,
Without their money, I only watch dreams shatter.

Decay



Decade of decay

1.First, so scared of silence,
We turned on the tv,
And we weren’t mad to find out,
They don’t see you like you see me.

2.First it talked so nicely
About blue flags and stars
And how happy we would all be
If each had phones, accounts and cars.

3.First we sold our lands
To some total strangers,
Then complained about rent,
Which well being endangers.

4.First we cut their forests,
Then locked them in cages,
They died after we killed ourselves,
Commanded by dark mages.

5.First we were so cunning
And agile just like lynx,
Then became feeble enough
To spend nights before drinks.
