A Phone Call

What used to be simple’s

No longer the case,

With AI and tech leaving

No human trace.

 

A phone call reverts to

The state of “On hold,”

The music appalling,

And not ‘cause I’m old.

 

The customer rep keeps

Repeating each fact,

But sends you an email

He failed to enact.

 

So after an hour,

Which soon becomes two,

You hang up the phone

And you haven’t a clue

 

If he did what you asked

To provide what you need

And you have no idea

Just how you should proceed.

 

I miss the old methods

Of making a call,

When a pencil and paper

Recorded it all.
