Striving for Recognition [SS2019] Non-Writer

Striving for Recognition

'This is my chance to shine!'
Details and  data notes all in order, standing at the podium.
 I share it all. 'Surely, they'll recognize my genius.'
A simple glance was all I needed. 
A sea of faces all aglow with blue screens. 
Not one noticed, when I retook my seat. 

The End

Very good

That's really a bummer when that happens

Yes, indeed. Though, the advice I was given was that I am being paranoid. Nowadays, folks take notes electronically, so naturally, the screens would be lit up. My suspicions that I was not heard are simply due to the culture in the business enviroment. No one is going to stand and applaud. Lol.

Could have been worse, you might have been naked too.

a reply to: AugustusMasonicus

Oh most definitely that would be much worse! Thank you for your experienced advice, Augustus!

Note to self: check mirror and ensure one is fully clothed.

No worries. As the great Mark Twain said: "Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence in society."

They did in the old days too.
