My prose / poem "It Started Off As A Joke" is actually a true story that happened to me at work.
IT STARTED OFF AS A JOKE It started off as a joke That got carried to far That I was just far too slow To complete my work assignments Co workers discussed the implications Managers were keeping an eye on me Everyone was questioning my work ethic Then a co worker timed my assigments And actually my time was very good And he realized what was going on Realizing that it was just a joke That got carried too far

Ronald Hull....The guy transferred from another store to ours....He was trying to make light of me while covering up his misdeeds....And for someone who had always lived in the Philly suburbs....From his appearance and actions he comes off like a hillbilly hayseed hick while wearing hiking boots to work....He's just totally out of place........

It must be terrible and feel like a machine to work where one has to produce under the clock of time. Humans are not robots.

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
