Recently I have applied 26 places with no luck. However, today, just as the monotony of filling out job application after application was becoming unbearable, I came across a delightful change of pace.
Pizza Pie Cafe's application required both a self portrait and a poem about yourself.
It's a bit sketchy because I was in a hurry, and there's almost no sense of meter, but here is my poem! For putting a whole five minutes effort into it, I am very proud. :)
Ode to Valerie
An original poem by Valerie Hart
A pinch of salt and sugar too,
A cup of responsibility,
A tablespoon of Elmer’s glue,
Keep following the recipe.
Add some fun and jumprope skills,
Don’t forget a dash of splendor.
An appetite for pizza meals,
Now throw it in the blender.
Bake at 98.6 degrees
And wait patiently please.
Here you have Valerie,
A marvelous creature indeed.
With nothing but humility,
Awesome is her creed.
