PARADISE

A poem on corporate despair.

By I. D. ReevesPublished 9 months ago • 1 min read

Paradise is in the background

Of my work laptop,

Curated each day by Microsoft:

Sky, clouds and endless verdant grasses.

Mountain vistas,

or white sand and crashing turquoise waves.

When I sit and start my day

I wonder why I am here

and not there, in Paradise.

It looks like the place where

Humans are meant to be.
