The Dumbest Job
Vying to be filled
By narcissists who
Are lacking in such
Personal power
They seek approval
From everyone but
Their own divinity
Telling provable lies
Making false promises
Raising money from
Broke & broken sources
For the paltry salary of
$ 400,000.⁰⁰ a year
(Achooo. Oops, they both sneezed)
As the side hustle to
Their more lucrative gigs
While and once they
Get out of the office
As either nudnik will
Inevitably, have blood
On their hands and ours
Can you say Ukraine and Gaza
Can you also say proxy wars or
Eurasia, East Asia and Oceania
“It’s out of control
Blood on the world’s hands
Each day, a new toll”
– Iron Maiden
“Blood On The World’s Hands”
Whether or not they are
The targeted figurehead
Of an illusionary economy
While the “we the people”
Work at war widgets and
Crap for consumables
As schools become prisons
To keep children “safe”
When not distracted by sports
Gender fluidity in bathrooms
Gender fluidity in sports
So the masses have
Scapegoats and heroes to
Their manufactured liking
Feeding the ego
With flavored polls
Having hopes or plans
Of outright “winning”
To do what…..control
An uncontrollable “wall”
Prop up a fake economy
Elude to the illusion of
Taking away your guns
Give one “rights” that
Everyone already has
Protect “freedoms” that
Everyone already has
As the product sponsors
Cash in on the cash cow
Built around the daily
Distraction of the dumb job
That you can have
Whiter teeth and a pretty smile
More manageable hair and style
A faster car that goes no faster
Than the rest of clogged traffic
Burning fuels and resources
One way or another to barely move
On a patchwork of patched roads
Make sure you always have enough
Life, car, health, cellphones, etc. Insurance
Auto warranties, debt consolidation
Tax relief and injury compensation
(Were you dumb and made a mistake?
Let’s blame somebody and get some money.)
Ooops, I am distracting myself.
Will close out the dumbest job with this.
“I ascribe to Mark Twain’s theory that the last person who should be President is the one who wants it the most.
The one who should be picked is the one who should be dragged kicking and screaming into the White House.”
– Bill Hicks
And I thought I had the dumbest job
Driving up and down the highway
Getting paid to sit on my butt while
Listening to everything or nothing
To think of this goofy stuff when
The only requirement to do a good job
Is to make sure I get enough sleep
“I have the most fun
Looking at the world
Through a windshield.”
– Angelo Devlin
Nice that your job makes our lives nicer!!!

Thanks.
The company doesn’t know, I would drive for free, so I receive compensation for thinking. Pretty good gig, if you can get it.
