MARCH:
I’m tired of my IT job –
I’m going to make it big! –
so I’m co-founding this start-up
with branded coffee cups
and an idea that’ll stick!
No boss to push me around –
no schedule to follow!
I’ll do whatever I please
starting from tomorrow!
APRIL:
I’m so proud of what I do!
I believe in it! Everything!
From the launch that we went through
to the posters I designed
and the visiting cards too!
And the website – which is great –
the future looks so bright!
This is what I was meant to do!
JUNE:
The bills didn’t pay themselves
so I had to take in a few
clients whose projects I didn’t
really want to do –
and some wouldn’t pay
and some complained
and I work much more
than I did before –
but I shouldn’t complain
since I asked for this, right?
I’m still my own boss
and that’s got to be right…
AUGUST:
I am not my own boss.
I had one boss before –
now I can hardly keep score –
Why did I ever
try this again?
It’s just so hard
to comprehend.
