RESUME BUILDER

I seek this opportunity

But then I realize

That the only reason I’m doing it

Is to build my resume

And then I realize that

The only reason I’m doing most things

Is to build this resume

And what I realize is that this resume

Is basically a collection

Of things I don’t want to do

But I do them

Because I realize

It

Will

Look good

On a resume

Which is basically this piece of paper

Where things are supposed

To

Look

Good

For some employer out there

But all the things

On the resume

Are just not the things

That I’ve wanted to do with my life

The resume

Is 

A 

Record of everything I’ve done

Not for myself

But for the pleasing of somebody

Or some many people

Outside of myself

A record of my existence

Not for myself

But for others
