Thinking Cog

Why she asked
Innocent, or was it?
Cringe of every curmudgeon
Fear of every manager

Like Charlie in Modern Times
Wanting to know, to deduce, to grasp
Her role, the steps to complete

Consternation of Ford and Deming
Wondering, asking why
To find the rhyme, the season
Or was it the reason
The raison d'être
For the task,
Or at least to show up for work
