The Working Woman

Well here I am

So plain and neat,

Heavy rimmed glasses,

Oxfords on my feet.



Three fresh pencils.

New steno book.

Soft knock on the door.

Now to quell that look.



Take a deep breath.

Enter the room

And quit that shaking

In the den of doom.



The pencil's poised.

Do we begin?

It's the grand moment

As the Boss walks in.



Well, hush my mouth,

Miss Neat and Plain!

She's got laryngitis!

You're reprieved again.
