Poetic Asides Work

Working at Home

Do you work they ask?
Meaning outside the home.
If I say no it sounds like I
sit around and eat
proverbial bonbons all day,
whatever bonbons are.
Yeah, I work like a slave,
when I’m not at the rec center,
having lunch with a friend,
or a out on a shopping trip.
I can do what I want,
as long as I’m not busy
with what I don’t want.
Can get lazy, crazy,
unorganized, obsessive,
tangled and tied up
with projects hither to yon.
I feel like I’m never done.
Relentless.
Can’t clock in and clock out
and leave the work behind,
but I like my coworkers
and have a great boss.
