| Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 02/04/09 at 07:35 PM Yes, I see what you mean. Excellent recounting of an experience! |
| Posted by Ken Harnisch on 02/06/09 at 01:34 PM hmmm....Remembering my cubicle days less than fondly and this paints a perfectly un-nostalgic picture of them Sandy. Great poem, not so great memories |
| Posted by Charles E Minshall on 02/07/09 at 11:23 PM Jerks have quirks which can spoil the works wherever one lurks. Good one Sandy...CharMin |
| Posted by Gregory O'Neill on 02/08/09 at 07:51 PM Sandy, you leave no doubt, Mondays are the potholes in the road of life. Great write. Delighted. Thanks. |
| Posted by Mara Meade on 02/09/09 at 04:30 AM And how you made poetry of it! |
| Posted by A. Paige White on 02/09/09 at 11:37 AM I'm not a fan of Mondays either but your poetry breaking out of it in spite of the jerks on a rough road makes mine seem a bit smoother. Much appreciated. |
| Posted by Maria Massarella on 02/11/09 at 01:15 PM Well,well, this has steered its way from the monday traffic into the impeccable realms of wednesdays POTD. Congratulations,Sandy!...*m.a |
| Posted by Elizabeth Jill on 02/11/09 at 05:21 PM And poetry has a way of breaking
Through even in an artistic drought
indeed! |

| Posted by Quinlan L Gibson on 02/11/09 at 07:26 PM Congratulations! Very worthy POTD! I love how this all ran together and was full of irony. |
| Posted by Kerowyn Rose on 02/12/09 at 03:20 AM UGH This is my entire day after week day described to a T. It is the poem I've been working on in my head, but found to difficult to write. You said it just right! Congrats on POTD! |

| Posted by Joan Serratelli on 02/13/09 at 10:26 PM I think everyone can relate to this piece. Well done! |
| Posted by Laura Doom on 03/22/09 at 12:06 PM Perhaps all people are created jerks -- it's just that men revel in the exposition thereof :) Worthy of promotion, this post of resignation. |
| Posted by Phil P Robson on 11/04/09 at 10:02 PM Another wonderful poem which I find very easy to relate to, what a world we live in! |
| Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 03/26/10 at 02:23 PM I know this feeling. I think it is common to poets. Too bad poets had not a poetry factory to go work for, whose owner was a poet him or herself and we were allowed to whistle while we worked on poems such as this. simply wunderbar. |
