Hostile Interviewers

They’re out there in the work world

Looks of contempt glow on their faces

Giving little space

To believe that I’m a future worker

A potential soldier

In their office army

Curiosity…there isn’t any

With vicious eyes

Leaving little surprise

That I’m not what they're looking for

No professionalism in their tone

They project the words, leave me alone

Taking three buses for this treatment

Had me heated

On the inside

Facing face knives

Having the little hope die

Eager to erase these discomforting times

And continue to climb

Towards places that align…with me

Letting the light within shine out of thee
