the office party

when the boss
comes around,
there is
a nervous buzz.
he's here,
or she's here.
look,
over there,
he's coming
this way.
the bees
settle down,
lower their
voices, stand
straighter
and think good
thoughts
causing smiles
to creep
upon their lips,
they sip
their drinks,
and wipe
the crumbs
from their
shirts.
here he comes.
don't say anything
stupid,
for once
in your life.
