Hospitality

I wrote some poems while I was still an eager young thing, finding her way in the world. I was at Mid Valley TAFE where I was doing Cert 2 in Hospitality during high school. We were, at the time, doing Wednesday night restaurant service and I got bored one night while playing cashier... The poems suck, so I'm only putting one really short one on, but I still like them anyway... My ex-friend Sharon, so named because she is now sleeping with my 61 year old father, was the faux manager for the night. Laura was a waiter, I think. Anyhoo...


Untitled (because I don't know what to call it)

I sat staring all around me
I was slipping into boredom
They come in bunches
They come in pairs
While Sharon tries to sort them

As I said, there are others, but they're of the rhyming variety and they suck. So, this is the only one worth posting. I like it anyways since it's the first poem I wrote following that format. I wrote another one, about my year 11 maths class using that format and it was well received by the people mentioned in it. Can't think why...
