A.S.A.P. (2003)

Welcome to the English language, in all of its perverse manifestations and third class interpretations. The majority of these were penned in the nineties and beyond; and mostly related to the office workplace. ‘ASAP’ is an obvious reaction the often-requested last-minute requests common in the workplace. For those of you living under a rock, cuz you never know, ASAP is an acronym for ‘as soon as possible’. Wrote a poem about it. Like to hear it? Here it goes…

A S A P
2003

Can I get this as ASAP?
Sure…

Do you know when it will be ready?
Soon...

But I need it ASAP! Is right now, not possible?

Nothing’s impossible...
But you’re right, right now is not possible...

See:
When you say “ASAP”,
I see “As Soon As Possible”…

At this point in time, it may not be possible,
But nothing’s impossible...

You’ll still get it,
As soon as possible…
When it’s possible...
