White collar

by Dave Milsom - Gemini

We’re offering BUPA
and the pension is free
All we ask is your soul
hear the clocking cards toll
Trapped in the harbour 
no sign of the sea

Yours is the corner
next to the wall
Here’s your calendar and pen
I’ll send you some emails
about nothing at all

And when you’ve read them
you can read them again
See you each morning 
remember your tie
coffee’s at ten and at three
Nothing much happens 
but we learn to get by 

Trapped in the harbour
no sign of the sea.
