Let's Mix


Party in the boardroom
with Secretary taking notes
listening on details
about the marketing plan.
It's the grand mix
the money maker
the grand chihuahua.
Sweat from excitement
about the next new thing
is ringing
phones across the earth.
Four ideas banging
together
to create a vision
and a dream come true.
Balloons are being filled
and oxygen is being sucked
as the four p's mix together
to create life.
Here it is-
brand new house with
a scenic view of the Pacific Ocean
and built with purple marble
in California for only
300,000 fresh Benjamins with a
sick new commercial to
draw in many clients.
This is it.

3 months
2 days
6 hours
4 minutes
39 seconds.
Time spent creating
this lovely salsa fest for
the real estate business.
Men in ties
creative thinking hats on
using computers to build
a pathway for an upcoming product.
The people who see this magic
are the ones who understand what
it means to be a marketer.
It is not easy
Ever day
different pains
arise from
missing Washingtons
and stupid Sistine Chapel's of
California.
However we have
come to this
This is it.

  1. This poem pulls me in so many directions. It was a great energy. I love the rining phones and banging ideas. It hurts my head. I also love the stupid Sistine Chapels of Cali. What a great image. What a complex point of view.

  2. Good job! I really like the beginning of the second stanza as you simply describe the amount of time that has passed.

  3. Great poem! I really liked the beginning stanzas of the second paragraph, which explains how long it took to make the ad. I like that you describe the fun of making the ad like "Party in the boardroom/ with Secretary taking notes."

  4. This poems fits the emotions of what is happening in the room so well, excitement, fast-paced ideas running. You brought the image together well without having to actually say too much of what is happening.
