She thought she had a good job,
Thought her boss was fair
Unbeknownst to her,
He was nothing but a liar.
 He spoke of things taboo
In the lab and office too
He called her a slave and worse
His words were more than terse.
He tried to hit her one day,
And she tried to walk away,
Bribes led her back to work
But it was a temporary stay.
Male coworkers made 5 times more
Than Bev, who often mopped the floor
And made coffee, the lab maid and whore
Until she said, No more.
No mas was the cry,
To the company owner who sat on high
Morality as just was cause
He provided severance, afraid of loss.

So Bev now works at home these days
In garden, home, and woods she plays
Living life in a simpler way.
Living only for today.


How's that for creating something on the spot?
