Market Whore
My name is everywhere, my every skill posted
My phone number written in blocky script
You can contact me anytime
And if you post the coveted sign on your window
I'll be at your door, offering my every service
I appreciate the kindness
And tolerate the rudeness
That each potential owner shows
I'll answer all your questions
And smile through the doubts
I promise I can please you
If you only give me the chance
And then once you let me go
Saying you'll call and never do
I bounce to the next window
So boldly posting "Help Wanted"
Though walking through your door
I'm sure you don't think I can give it
I hand you my resume and smile politely
Knowing I'll be walking through doors
That only lock on my way out
For the rest of the day
And waiting desperately by my phone
Until someone sees I'm more than just the temp
And much better suited to be the long term
If you'd only let me
