Replacement worker
scab employed till I bled
a little too much
I have no company now
led a little too much
but I love serving the best
flowers in my garden
Poems on the topic: company
Poems on the topic “company” on Poets.by.
Out walking
in the woods I found
good company
everyone was absent as a drunk
present as an old sign
I spoke one word
and away home
Escapist
I found a garden in my mind,
and good company.
I stayed there
till I was ill and vomited,
and in the morning got cold
and had pain in pissing.
Company man
At the office, all
hunt for ash—no fire.
The company is
another gone god.
I receive a subpoena for it,
give it a bed
between the midwife and the day.
Self-exile
I went among others
to be mended. But
their beautiful company
showed me an old bag—
my ill condition. Nobody
could make me desire to be.
I do not know
the trick of trust.
Shortcut
A man with feathers was in quest
of a kite, but through want of time
was taken up by joy.
High words would have been better,
but all the company was dancing
and tumbling, vexed about joy.
Congregation
At church, a strange company,
a great store of gall,
an impertinent sling,
a child in a well.
Cogma
I work with pleasure.
Near an end of work,
I burn to give
satisfaction
to the company.
Take me.
Make me.
Drinking Alone
Where to find good company?
My father’s a pint of sack
and I a weak sea.
I bark in Latin
at a dozen bottles of wine.
Cruise
A borrowed voyage:
we dine and talk
and the wine is
excellent company.
Arbitration
Water to the ship, we met
the owners—we
brothers in the company—
and all our guns
were open
to revenge.
Larks
I paid to free from a dinner dish
two dozen larks, a great company,
and all were merry.
They drank a bottle of wine, fell down,
and ate from my hand.
