Poetry Corner: “Evening Management Classes”

Evening Management Classes

greedy grasping suburban sniffers
assemble after work
haunted by prospects of lower class blues
fired by ambitious dreams
ontological drama forgotten
in the dance of dollars
the future of the senior management team
shines like the star of Bethlehem Steel
clamouring to absorb the techniques of worker manipulation
and win that VOLVO XC 90
respect, dignity
wholesome men and women of the community
not even the imported Italian fragrances
masks the smell of their shit
