May 3, 2007 by kim.
I’ve been trying to think of something to write up here for two days, and can think of nothing! I almost regaled you with talk of candy bars and my longstanding obsession with the chocolate/peanut butter combination (Peanut Butter Twix - yum!) or about too much corn syrup in foods such as bread and yogurt, but they just weren’t working. So, I’ve decided to post another of my poems in the hope of buying some time until I can think of something more lively to write.
This is one in my collection of “Corporate Poetry and other Oxymorons”. Now if I could just get an illustrator…
Executive Sloths
Executive Sloths shuffle past
Ever…so…slowly,
Moving like an eight-legged mammoth
In blue and pinstripes.
One of the four heads
Turns to address the other three
While they take up as much time
And space
As possible
On the way to their destination;
Never to pass this way again.
