We all sit and wait,
the Christmas music unnoticed.
The woman in black is on hold
trying to get insulin for her sister.
The big woman in a bright pink scarf
dozes off and on, frowning all the while.
A tall man holding a clipboard approaches,
he tells me i need a new axle and more.
We all continue doing what we are doing
on our smart phones.
The tall man returns
and gives the bad news to a woman in tight clothing.
No one notices but me.
