It would be nice
to work with people
sans the dreadful
everyday conversations.
No small talk.
No weekend plans.
No one asking
whether I’ve seen
the latest prestige drama.
Just a quiet room,
a clipboard,
and clients
who have finally learned
the value of stillness.
I’d be respectful,
of course.
But perhaps
slightly too pleased
about the working conditions.
- IF I WERE A MUPPET
