it’s been lonelier than usual at work
i keep calling long distance
like it’ll make a difference
this time
hi hello again am i
bothering you
your tone changed
somewhere recently
maybe you’re the wrong bank
for this deposit
this is all so counterproductive
like a nailbiting habit
born from hygiene anxiety
backskip & blot lipstick
maybe this part won’t
always feel so fraught
hi hello again i’ve been
screened
i am wasted
but i’m ready
