At the Post Office

Had to mail some packages;

Waited on a line.

Didn’t take too long and really,

Everything was fine.

 

Still, I was surprised to see

My matched-up window clerk

Was talking on the phone, non-stop,

The whole time she did work.

 

She never said a word to me,

Just pointed at a screen.

I guess this was a very normal

Part of her routine.

 

Perhaps, without her ear buds

And her phone call she’d be lost,

But maybe she’d have noticed

FRAGILE! on each box she tossed.
