Roadshow Rune

Endless talks and greeting customers
early flights and last minute transfers

Separation from family. Foreign lands and friends,
traveling from here to there, checking out, recording expenses

Computer gliches, VPCs and microphones,
heavy sighs, coughs and sneezes. Translator undertones.

MOLAP, ROLAP, MVPs, and other computer things,
large convention halls with suits, skirts and cel phone rings.

Late checkin, early checkouts, receipts and tips,
manager in shock, cost police accountant flips.

Greece, Israel, Poland, Norway, and France,
Living out of a suitcase, I wish I had more pants.

Kalimera, Chindobru, Buenes Dias, and Shalom,
Learning languages part of the fun, but I think I'll stick with one.

Tomorrow it's Portugal and that's the last day,
then it's back to the good ol' USA!
