Bad Job Blues

A lot of us have been here, I'd imagine.

Walking across the macadam
there are strange intersections in time
where I hope I am really not here
at all, but this is Monday wishful thinking,
the snow falling on the
junkers raggedly lined in the
commuter's lot.

I missed the 8:30
but this bus will probably get me
to hell on time.
The place where I talk
to myself in the ladies' room
mirror, hands swollen, aching.
This is what happens to frivolity,
typing
in a land of
no dreams.

Trudging across the macadam. Oh boy, Your hands are swollen from typing nonstop and my feet ache from being on them for 8-12 hours straight working in surgery where it never stops. You have penned your feelings well and I am glad you shared them. Excellent. Liz

Well expressed emotion that I am sure many have felt at one time or another....

Be always safe,
Karen
