Labour Supplier Typologies

Here comes the stale mate

Sniffs much familiar like stale bread

Lacks fruit freshness and spice

Sits still with old wage tales 


Here comes the sloppy joke

Walks about in religious cloke 

Scarcely employs faith for output

Warms up around cold stove 


Here comes the town crier

Lip drips with news like honey

Knows about everything but duty

Clings to gossip like treasure 


Here comes the chance passerby

Stops by workspace like moving train

Can safely be tagged a visitor 

Sits through till the cheque arrives 


Here comes the stagnant pond

Soaks in every rain like a sponge

Hosts clues and sundry tools in the yard

Stinks around through lack of use 


Here comes the unwilling pound

Laden with golden talents like trader ships

Bereft of fuel for daily voyage

Blames the sunny system for its idleness 6 


Here comes the entitled kin

Seeks applause like a nodding lizard

Any new feather fits in the cap

Wastes away the common good 


Here comes the stumbling block

Moves no further like yesterday

The chatter does not aid daily grind

Gets the boot during a cycle of bust 


Here comes the sly merchant

Fitted with sweets like a corner shop 

Buys up loyalty with questionable motives

Always on the run to the next sale 


Here comes the hedge of thorns

Irritates the office teeth like vinegar

Streams with contentions and worries

Just at play for what is in it 


Here comes the stubborn goat

Hears well but heeds no instruction 

Bounces off noble water like canvas

So gives off odour like rotten egg 


Here comes the go-to grace

Shows up loyally like the owner

Bears work burdens with resilience

Has right answer to the seeker's quest

...

Time and chance comes fair to all

Idle sloth has opportunity to repent

Diligence humbly gains the day 

Water seeks its own level
