It's Personnel [Today's News Poem, October 13, 2010]

It's Personnel [Today's News Poem, October 13, 2010]

Personnel is personless,
Purseful and purposeless—

And never personal. It never

Was about you. Disappear,
Dissipate—manifest

Yourself as stitches or suturing...

You: persona mannequin,
Voodoo of nervousness:

Unspool a while. If the tethering

Is what's burning pockets then
Tighten your money-belt.

Remember: nothing is personal.

"Coming into their final debate of the California governor's race, Democrat Jerry Brown and Republican Meg Whitman had a chance to persuade a statewide audience they could turn around the economically troubled state. Instead, their third face-to-face exchange resorted to many of the personal attacks that have dominated the last few weeks of the campaign."
