Analysis of Previous Employer

They claimed to be a friend,
That would stand by me to the end,
And reminded me over and over.

I resisted their conditioning,
And fought off their soliciting,
To evade the mental takeover.

I am sure it was intimidation,
That created the situation,
For the desire to send me away.

My exemplary behavior,
Left no need for a savior,
I was a leader that could not stay.

With desires to get even,
And call each a lying heathen,
I realized that exodus would be bliss.

Would be better for my health,
So I kept my hands to myself,
Said "a Dios" and blew them a kiss.

I refused to show my face,
In that God-forsaken place,
But with time saw forgiveness as best.

Things happen for a reason,
Now give me something to believe in,
So that I can continue the quest.

No tears where I bled,
And plenty of road up ahead,
The experience is what makes it a win.

The journey is who we are,
It can take us near or far,
Making us the best that we have ever been.
