Being A Pick Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Being a pick

It is rule and has been
-among the masons
-and carpenters
-colleagues in
-house building…

To ensure job is theirs
-they make hole
-in the wall
-with pick
-or a shovel
-cut some wood
-of kitchen
-window
-door

Smartly, they somehow…
-tie themselves
-with the job

Like fisher with hook, line
-and the fish holding on
-patiently they play
-most of times
-with delay

Recommend other things
-price will increase
-and the time

My friend and my boss
-used me as a pick by
-sending me to start
-as a hook or shovel…

He delayed since was sure
-I play my game there…
-no one will give a job
-to doers far apart…
-and I laugh
-at tactic…
