Time for more instances of the homophone:
a word pronounced the same as another but differing in
meaning, whether spelled the same way or not, as heir and air.
1. magnate (noun): a person
who has great wealth and power in a particular business or industry
2. magnet (noun): a piece of
material (such as iron or steel) that is able to attract certain metals;
something or someone that attracts people or things.
That magnet magnate magnetized
His workers. (We are not surprised.)
He figured out a way to make
Them focus on their work (mistake?)
Instead of on their smart-phone apps—
Which caused at times a certain lapse
In quality: The magnets
failed
To magnetize; sometimes they trailed
The competition’s offerings.
The magnate’s move now quickly
brings
The competition to an end.
(Of course, he also has no friend—
No, none.) It’s work the magnate
cares
About. And funding lazy heirs!
His app-less workers just work on—
And, soon enough, their lives are gone.
(Dark, eh?)
