The Interview That Is Life
By: Adam Jordan Rubenstein
September 2009

Life throws curve balls
And sends us through a tunneled maze

Days, on end
Practicing…
Everything and how we should say…
Portray…
Place our cards…
So diligently;

Who are you?
Where are you from?
What are you doing?

Why have you come?
And how do you plan to get there?

Questions…
Comments…
Concerns…

Just how does it concern…
You!

The basis of a question is to understand,
Knowledge is nothing with out appreciation.
Do you welcome it?
Or watch it, as it passes you by?

Overcome your struggles
Lash out at your fears
Show your remorse
Yet hold back the tears

Tell of your years
Past experiences through career
Adhere to all they have to say

As “they” know best
Nevertheless never stress
Not all will relies
Thus…
Is the interview that is life.
