Paper pen, fat cat.
"He's not available"
Mumbled into a bowl.
Boss's room double booked.
By Dorris Groom.
Promotion beckons
The feline and my bone.
Another tea-
Break my soul.
Buried butt of a joke.
And no-one's laughing.
The cross word, cross words,
Cross my mind.
Scribbled nine-to-five.
Just another stupid dog.

This is an interesting take to the picture, for sure. And I like that you took the picture and really made it your own. Human life can surely be like this time to time, filled with things we don't like. Even work can really get to us when things start happening and we're not involved to all of that. We're just a part of the crowd no one notices... That's what I saw in this piece and the view really made me think about things. That's always a good thing, I assure you.
Great work with this one!
