Enquiries

“Can I help you?” – I say
Because it’s part of my job
Seated in front of me
He opens his gob
“What does this mean?”
He looks at me and asks
What I feel like saying is;
“That you’re a pain in the ass!”
But I don’t – I just smile
And say, “May I look?”
I glance at his letter
I’d have rather read a book
“I’ll just get your papers”
I get up to go
Things that we do
To earn us some dough!
Whilst retaining my seat
I look at his file
Where do I begin?
I start with a smile
“Well, it’s like this”
Is how I begin
Why is his face
Covered in that big grin?
Is he sucking a lemon?
Or maybe a lime
He says, “I understand;
I’m just wasting your time!”
