Ode to “10-4”

I beg my brain “Don’t atrophy!”

Because my job is numbing me

Is dumbing me

Oh! What will become of me?

Here I sit with  microphone

On & on the questions drone

And to hear the ringing phone

Reminds me why I moan & groan!

“10-4” I say

Has taken me away

Where I don’t wanna be

In the land of stupidity

Counting my blessings

Employment is good

But I’m quite sure

I’m less than I could…      BE!
