Bob's Poem

This is chapter one of my story.
My name is Bob.
I have a boring job.
Welcome to my life.
Hope you enjoy it more than I do.

This is Chapter two,
not much better than the first.
I am still Bob.
I still have a boring job.
Now I want to do something about it.

This is chapter three.
I am still Bob.
I no longer have a boring job.
I do not have a job at all. I
wish I had a job, any job—
even a boring one.

This is chapter four.
I am still Bob,
but barely.
I still do not have a job,
let alone a boring one.
I wish I was not Bob.

This is chapter five.
I have chosen to no longer be Bob.
Bye, Bob.
It was not nice knowing you.
Hope you have better luck in your next life.

This is chapter six.
Boring men have boring funerals.
Only one person came to Bob’s funeral—
me.

This is chapter seven.
My name is Jack.
I have a boring job.
Welcome to my life.
Hope you enjoy it more than Bob did.
