50PoWriMo - XXIII

herschel's birthday



he discovered uranus
which is nothing to be sniffed at
he discovered infrared radiation
which is less frequent than you can see
he discovered that coral is an animal
and passed it on

but most of all he was a musician
a composer and orchestra director
a professional artist and a scientist for fun

and he didn't live to be two hundred and seventy-two
so he doesn't have to read this

job satisfaction



anyone who says they love their job
is lying
a universal truth we work hard at
denying
think about it too long you won't keep yourself
from crying
on the days i like it most i might describe mine as
stultifying
the rest of the time it's just a slow method
of dying
