The Cubicle
D G Williford

Alone I sit in my box of death

Trying to come up with cute quips for a deadline

If they only knew that words would be my undoing

The "Boss" sits in his glass palace and tells me one
thing and then does another...

Micromanaging is not my thing... botta bing

My life is filled with E-Bay, Yahoo Mail and Overstock.com

Why can't he see that I'm drowning here?

I have to have an outlet for my stress, I have to have a
hole to hide...

Tomorrow is my monthly one on one meeting...

Am I ready?

Hell no...

Will it be productive?

Hell yes...

It always is... I don't know why I'm stressing...
