Workaholics Need Life Balance
More peace, joy, and time to dance
Sadly they slave away at home
With their noses to the grindstone
They do work tirelessly and furiously
Pushing through tasks aggressively
Always getting things done diligently
Delegating and using people readily
Fighting for their focus consistently
Angrily alienating people foolishly
They never quite enjoy their life fully
Not being distracted by their family
Never being friendly to their secretary
Attending their kid's ball game reluctantly
Being there outwardly, but absent inwardly
Going on date night with wives grudgingly
Workaholics usually behave most smugly
Continually exuding their vast superiority
Ironically never hiding inconspicuously
Their feelings fixated professionally
Distant and undesirous relationally
It seems friends and family are merely
Another trophy to project their identity
Leverage to help their image in society
Appear polished, capable, and prudently
Prominent, affluent, and important
Prosperous, wealthy, and abundant
In the finer, elegant things of life
Never mind they return home to strife
Because of their incessant work schedule
The workaholic has no time for upheaval
Neither to relationally listen and shovel
Heartfelt feelings from an emotional pit
Hence they work nonstop and never quit
Preferring rather to neglect and bury it
Avoiding acknowledging a painful truth
They stumble relationally being uncouth
Unkind, giving no time, to the most sublime
Satisfying intangible blessing to mankind
That being love and life liberally given
A personal freewill, generous contribution
Such selfless love births a revolution
Within the hearts of everyone it does touch
It seems quite costly, but adds so much
Monetarily it is the least of expenses
Requiring only a time investment
Bringing unfathomable appreciation
Priceless integration and accumulation
Of inner wealth and joyous wonders
Rectifying wrongs of workaholics blunders.
