In front of all I will declare
Upon your padded seat I swear.
To sit is such a fine affair.
O how I love thee, office chair.
There is no other to compare,
Another’s judgement just unfair.
Such fun, productive times we share.
O how I love thee, office chair.For some to sit at work with their
Afflicted buttocks unaware
Their seat is like a prickly pear!
O how I love thee, office chair.But in my space I take great care.
A bitter backside, au contraire,
How jubilant my derriere!
O how I love thee, office chair.
Dude! Take a break! ;)
What a wondrous relationship we have with our… office chairs. Yes…. (Why do I feel a Harlan Ellison moment coming on?)
Is there some sort of underground office poetry contest going on or something (also see John’s post)?
Maybe I’ll have to come up with an ode to my own office area; and I’ll tell you what, my chair is a prickly pear for sure.
you are a sick sick man.
A photo of this office chair that was important enough to write a poem about might be good! :)
Ethan: Must be something in the air.
They’re absolutely everywhere. I guess this is a new ‘meme’ type thing. Another one I won’t be participating in – I can’t write petry/ songs for anything. Mine would be very similar to Mikes I think.
My office chair totally sucks. Don’t ever get the $29 pleather chair at office max.
i’d take a ode to a chair any day, rather that than ode to blue…
OH MY GOD HE IS A COMMIE AND HE’S USING SECRET CODE TO COMMUNICATE WITH OTHER CELLS IN THE COUNTRY! gasp
I’df have to agree with the first guy. Take a break:-p
llr and Zach: Well, that kind of was my break. I think what I need is a vacation!
Shyea.
Odd, I recently wrote a poem. This before I’d ever heard of your blog.
For A Chair
This chair has been
Abandoned by the modern, left
For sterile ergonomic display,
One hundred and ten per-cent
Your workload increased or
A money-back guarantee.
This chair has paused,
Stout front legs poised
To bear the load of a man
His figure leaned forth,
Rear legs gently bowed
As his head in thought.
Gracefully channeled woodwork
Pronounces elegance tastefully
Complemented by the curvaceous
Faceting of well-rounded upholstery
Turquoise threaded gently emerald
The calm sea delivered for the
Presence of your lively gathering.
