Alden could be angry
when his beloved oiltown remains distant
and the company he prefers escapes fire
burning desires
lots of undergraduate students dress up
they wear black suits, with a white bowtie
they walk with serious folder of resume
and hope to dance into a construction work unit
or a energy based company
business, oil, cars, engineering, and technology,
all come to our attention
with refined names,
and with well fine tuned expertises
stay upbeat
we wish those friends of Ohio and Illinois states
A Very Merry Job Market Experiences
Thanks to feedback of Alden Burns Hargis, Ann Hargis, and Greg Graves
