How I got my new job

I've moved along, with my eyes pealed

looking for a fight.

Deciding to stay, put me in a way

I felt I could no longer "see".

In moments of anger I fell into madness.

The boredom of the unchanging

clutched at me from its ragelessness.

Alexis and I circled.

Then, moving at top speed as if a knight on a horse

an offer I did not solicit.

Flashing acceptance for a more distant post

whose requirements were:

The ability to be,

and understanding the needs of others.

I accepted immediately.
