A Time To Weep, by IDBB
There is a time to laugh, a time to weep
So the bible says,little peep

Well right now is my time to cry,every tear drop that doesn’t come to dry

I’ve been sitting here for way too long, trying to write the words to this damned song

The words just won’t come out right,I guess I’ll have to use hindsight

I sit here day after day and try to find work

But I end up feeling like a big fat jerk

No experience=no job, is what they all tell me

It’s like having no experience has now become a felony

I guess I"ll sit here,day after worthless day,searching for something that I lost that can’t be found

Until the day,for bills nonpaid,I’m prison-bound

Where I’ll sit in a cell and rot and be assfucked

I guess that’s what happens when from a job you’ve been chucked

Till then I"ll sit here and weep,like Little Bo Peep who lost her precious sheep

And wonder when I’ll find a job,which ain’t likely

Since right now finding a job in retail is just un-cycley

What the hell does that mean, you ask and I reply,“Don’t rightly know”

I’d be better off,buried up to my eyeballs in snow

At least then I’d freeze and get hypothermic and die

At least that’s better than lusting over pie in the sky

Oh ferchrissakes already! Turn off the waterworks and get a fuckin’ job!

Kalhoun–I was going to say something but I’ve decided NOT to dignify that with any sort of answer.

Now that is poetry!

5

You do realize, that that is more or less an answer, don’t you?

6

Awww… don’t worry, you probably won’t get assfucked. Women’s prisons are more into gang banging with foreign objects.

I’m sorry you’re having trouble getting a job. This is a bad time to be unemployed.

7

Yes, please don’t end up in Federal pound-me-in-the-ass prison.

8

I’m upset that Till’s name was used in this poem

That’s very well where I may end up (and CG too) if I don’t find a job soon. We’ve already cut out the ‘extras’ in our life (i.e…we now have ‘basic’ cable, we cut off the Netflix as well as traded in CG’s precious convertible for a car with a lower carpayment per month among other things).
But thanks for the concern.
And now…another poem, this one a bit more cheerful, written in a more cheerful time in my life.

The Magic of Disney
by IDBB

Remembering the magic helps keep you young
It brings back the memories of happier times in a world full of strife,hurt and harm

Raise your eyes and arms to the sky,the magic is in you

It’s like a part of the universe,it surrounds and binds us to each other

It’s a shared experience,part of the circle of life

Sooner or later,we are all touched by that magic,no matter how jaded we might be

The magic’s in you and the magic’s in me

Gladly will I don those mouse ears and ride on the carousel,feeling the joy that comes from living the magic

Disney has a special kind of magic,it’s so hard to put words to it

But you know you’ll feel it when you step through those gates and see the castle towering high in the sky,glinting like something from your most treasured storybook fantasy

And Mickey waves,beckoning you to forget that you are an adult full of sorrow and worry and hate and invites you to his kingdom where everything is alright again and it’s always perfect there

So come with me,friend,and believe in the magic of the Mouse once again the way you did way back then

Feel the magic flow through your veins and bring a smile to your face

It’s the magic that only Uncle Walt could create and the magic that lives on today,through his spirit and Mickey

Will you don your mouse ears and come with me?

It’s a place where we can all be free,a place made from the magic of childhood,of dreams,of pure imagination

This is truly a Magic Kingdom

Can I suggest a slight amendment? Change the line:

Not only does it flow better, but then you have a common theme with the first poem. Kind of ties the whole thread together, in a way.

falls over laughing

joins Francesca in rolling on the floor laughing
Oh and as for assfucking…I think we’re the ones doing it to Microsoft right now. When CG called them to tell them we’d have to cancel our service (which was about to expire in a month anyway),they were so upset that they gave free Internet service until May. How’s that for assfucking,eh?:smiley:

I think we’re laughing at different things.

14

What does it matter as long as we are all laughing?:smiley:

IDBB

and…

spit take

16

Call me stupid.OK YER STUPID…heh heh but what is a spit take?:confused:

IDBB

What does it matter as long as we are all getting assfucked?

I’m chuckling because it’s difficult for me to equate “basic cable” with a drastic reduction in spending. To me, serious economizing would equal no cable at all.

I do appreciate that the your current job search is frustrating and that you seem rather depressed and angry. Quite normal.
However, may I, an almost confirmed lurker, share a little tidbit with you?
I seldom have any agenda as regards individual posters. However, I have watched a number of melt downs here.
You seem to be flailing about on these boards in a desperate attempt to fit in and make friends .
Neither your current crop of Pit vitriol nor your poems are going to accomplish that goal.
Trust me on this issue.
A large number of posters on this board are very smart. They also tend to be brutally honest.
They do not suffer bullshit gladly.
Take a deep breath and stop trying so hard.
Add a comment here or there but think long and hard before you initiate a thread for at least a week.
You don’t have to share everything.
I’m really not trying to offend you,*I_Dig_Bad_Boys but I’m starting to recognize a pattern here and it ain’'t pretty.

When you laugh so hard you spit out your drink.

I’m not sure that’s the exact question you need to be asking yourself.
