Reassessment, necessary or not?

If my weak side is always in conflict with my strong side, and my weak side usually wins, is my weak side stronger than my strong side?

Fake cat

Elf disguised as a cat comes into the apartment. I don't let on that I know.

Conflict resolved

Elf and I go into the closet.
Only I come out.

Rod McKuen style

What is my Co-Worker Doing in these Stressful Times?

Do I hear you weeping
in your cubicle?
Or are you doing something
I can't mention in a poem?

If the former,
condolences.
If the latter,
I will leave you alone
for now,
sweet office-mate.

In the Style of Walt Whitman

The wistful organization puts fostering a gentle ennui
at the top of the agenda. Everyone commits themselves
to doing a little less and being a little bit sadder--
An action plan is created after much discussion;
It passes down through the organization from section head
to manager to employee.
Each takes the message to heart. I watch the team player
tearing up at his desk. I watch as his officemates
console him with embraces and kind wishes.

One-on-One

You are the invisible and all-mighty
bester of many including Lucifer,
and I can hear your unseen sneakers moving
and sense the dribbled ball moving by--a blur.
Then swish. Then swish. Then swish.

Yet, I will play you again, Lord.

Song

The meteoric rise of the Elf Queen is well-known,
well-known!
to all the scholars at the College.

And of the story of her demise all are apprised:
it's common knowledge.
Common knowledge!

Oh, surpassing sad is the Elf Queen's tale--
it wasn't that she was lazy.
She ran after an errant quail and
tripped over a daisy.

She tripped over a daisy!
