A collection of minimalist poetry that explores the hustle of the Canadian urban business world and the frustration and futility of chasing a dream of success that might not exist in the current capitalist society. Even in Canada, we have been sold the idea of the American dream, by generations that could afford houses, cars, vacations homes, and big families on single incomes, without going into massive amounts of debt or require higher education. This is no longer the reality, yet we push for it. Concealing all our cracks under our suits, makeup, and accessories; hoping we can hold it together long enough to get a taste of that dream. This collection is completely relevant and relatable to any poetry lover and anyone working in a corporate environment.

Preface For years, I have worked to establish a professional legacy that illustrates who I am at my core. I work extremely hard and at times, I play even harder. Over my many years as a public servant and a successful entrepreneur/consultant, I have experienced success that often leaves many people in awe - especially when they hear the back story. Yes, I have been acclaimed in my career field and praised for my efficiency. Some have even labeled me a "subject matter expert." I've helped countless others achieve remarkable success via my brain children (which brings me great pride) However, aside from all of that, I am much more than my resume'. I am a success story, to say the least, and I am honored to have this moment to freely share my life with you; and while I have not quite made it to the top, I am still Climbing the Ladder on Broken Rungs.
