Written for "EXPRESS IT IN EIGHT, topic: ENERGY DRAINERS; OVERWORKING.


I was under paid for too much work
because my boss was just a jerk;
I was required to do the job of three;
He reaped the profits instead of me.

I had enough and one day I quit.
Surprised, my boss then threw a fit.
But now that I won't work no more
I've discovered my boss has hired four!

About The Author
My writing doesn't follow any set genre, it's interdependent of my mood and all that's taking place in life. I'm still finding myself, what I write constitutes the markers along the path of that journey. With time, many things will manifest in my work and perhaps I will pursue one or two genres. For now, it's not, "What type of writing is my passion?" "Writing is my passion."
