The Confessional

by jencam   Jun 3, 2005


What if my coworkers find out?
What if they possibly knew?
They couldn't possibly figure it out...
I believe they haven't a clue.

I work in a fancy office,
at lunch I try to eat alone
sitting by myself at the back table
where it appears I'm reading "The DaVinci Code".

I pray no one asks to see my book
the book jacket can be quite deceiving
for if they open it up and read
they'll see the double life I'm leading.

There is talk of the news and the war overseas
and the score of last night's game
my thoughts however are at Hogwarts
and with "he who shall not be named"

Some of my coworkers looked at me oddly
when I requested specific vacation time,
but book #6 comes out July 16,
I know because I've pre-ordered mine.

I'm a corporate employee
I'm a sister and a daughter
I'm a 30 year old woman
Who is addicted to Harry Potter.
