28 – Build a career



demolish a life, swing the hammer, ride the pendulum

unfinish business


build a career three words at a time

on the lonely poets torn from prose

woven into plundered wonder


of bark and roses

from beer and cul de sacs


if you can draw this mouse

a gift from god


brick by brick

without ever having to learn

correspondence


watch new technology wipe out jobs

build a career by careening and careering

but don’t become it, the Tin Man, the Scarecrow,

a castle of dreams, sharing the treasure.

Promise not to wake up.


Build a fear out of passion and risk.


Build a career – win valuable prizes!

(batteries not included)


build a career and buy gold

build a career wreck a life

build a career careening into buildings

build a career and create a life

build a career if you have no life

or ride a blue arc
