Those That Would Lead

meetings

going on forever

always talking

never acting

usually getting in the way

if not outright obstructing

progress is made in spite of them

rank and file almost always 

saving their asses

management

gotta love em

not

Reviews

[Neva Flores Smith - Cha..]

absolutely perfectly right.

[Audrey Howitt]

True! And a great write!

[Kenneth The Poet]

Dead on accurate.

[FJ Davis]

Those who can actually do a job, usually "stay on the floor"; those who "talk a good game" often get kicked upstairs--where they arrogantly attempt to oversee work they have never been able to adequately perform.
Your poem absolutely nails it, Al.

hmm i see the point here. Often waste of time spent talking rather than acting and producing. Very well noted this short piece. I enjoyed.
