Big city start up

I started a new job

At a start up downtown

It felt good to walk around the city dressed like a professional

I really felt like somebody climbing the floors of the sky rise

Up to the very top

Four days in and the CEO made me dance like a monkey in front of the whole office

Humiliating myself to boost his ego

I cried so much that I left early that day

I felt small in the elevator as I sank to the first floor

Downtown didn’t look the same with tears running down my face
