The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

Three hours elapse

Serenity

I exist

Calmly and happily floating

But then

 

BZZT

 

I awake answer phone

Someone fallen ill

Will I rise, replace?

 

I glance at clock

 

1:00 PM

 

Fine. Hang up.

 

Glance back

7:00 PM

 

Stare.

 

Rush

 

Boxes everywhere, the mist of time stagnating my brain and memory

Cooking what little I have left in a broth made up of cardboard and

produce left on shelves.

 

I stare at him barely comprehending

 

Two months to change schedule? I refuse.

 

He reaffirms.

 

I sigh.

 

I exist. I find work elsewhere.

 

I continue living.

You're mom told me about that yesterday. We all (she, Jess and I) had a good laugh. Anyways, this is a very interesting format, not sure if I like it yet or not.

 

Better luck with the job situation.
