Boss

Years later,
we seemed to cross paths
inside the Virgin business class lounge.
I should have said hello.
Whatever.
I was out of it.
I thought I had swine flu.

I like to talk about how I first did coke with you.
How you met a lawyer online and
had a sadomasochistic relationship with him.

Years before,
it was playful enough.
But I think something deep seated and spiteful
reared up
when you passed me that dog suit
and instilled in me the nature
of hard work.

My mum did that already
with a stupid hospital laundry job.
Covered in shit.
Thanks a bunch, mum.

I once cleaned encrusted milk product off the pipes
of a dairy.

Thanks,

a

BUNCH!


You could have had me scraping gum off the floor,
or kicking the professors back into line.
I mean, anything really.

Do you know how I made it look like
I was doing overtime?
More fool you!
I was glumly looking at porn.
Hmm.
