Used to Be

There used to be
A fun loving little boy who lived there
Ready to come out and play anytime
And for any reason, real or imagined.
But last time I checked my heart, he was gone
Only a sign left behind
Sorry, I don’t live here anymore.

There used to be
A very humble, open minded clerk
Who organized the contents of my mind every day
Based on a moral compass
And a respect for all living things
With a genuine concern and caring for all
But things have gotten really messy up there lately
And I suspect he has abandoned the post
Sorry, I don’t work here anymore.

I need to complain to management,
This organization needs restructuring.
Think you can handle the job?
