Chrome Pot
January 24th, 2009
What is the meaning of the poem “Unemployment” by Tom Wayman?
Here is the Poem:
The chrome lid of the coffee pot
twists off, and the glass knob rinsed.
Lift out the assembly, dump
the grounds out. Wash the pot and
fill with water, put everything back with
fresh grounds and snap the top down.
Plug in again and wait.
Unemployment is also
a great snow deep around the house
choking the street, and the City.
Nothing moves. Newspaper photographs
show the traffic backed up for miles.
Going out to shovel the walk
I think how in a few days the sun will clear this.
No one will know I worked here.
This is like whatever I do.
How strange that so magnificent a thing as a body
with its twinges, its aches
should have all that chemistry, that bulk
the intricate electrical brain
subjected to something as tiny
as buying a postage stamp.
Or selling it.
Or waiting.
He saying that even though no one will even know he’s gone, there will still be a ripple in the economy if he’s not working, making money and putting back into the market. At the end he can’t understand why someone as constructive as he would be as someone’s employee… all he is withered down to is buying a stamp so he could either sell it for money or send it on a resume to the next employer.
