Headphones In Wishing

it’s the beginning
again and i’m
completely sad.
she laughs and
the emails pile
in
another business
week beginning
and today
it’s completely too much.
completely.
phones ring
and people talk about
their weekend
triumphs over completely
the wrong things
and burned coffee
and how was my weekend?
and it was just fine
and dandy
and can you believe
this god-damned fucking weather?
completely. elsewhere
at my desk
with my headphones in.
but i can still hear.
laughing.
completely.
