untitled (12/2011)

Out the window I look
Following the clouds
As they billow across the sky
"Count the beans!"
"Count the beans!"
Yell my bosses
Yell my co-workers
"But I was just looking
At the clouds," I say
"The clouds are not important!"
They say, "Count the beans!"
"That is what is important!"
So back to the bean counting
While my mind dreams of clouds.
