The Joy of Being a Bureaucrat

Covered and bent do I spend my days
Long enough to make the devil pale.
Kafkaesque?  I'd say Lovecraftian, in a way.
For this life turns bitter to bland
In an ether of sheets, but when I land
I place a great abomination in someone else's hand.

Then, the burbling mirth bubbles up out of me,
Laughing at that other poor bastard
Who has to read a hundred and thirty seven of those things.
