2 hours scrubbing
office refrigerator
i don’t even use
extremely over
workplace misogyny from
white male managers
motherfuckers it’s
not in my job description
why don’t you do it
is what i should’ve
said aloud instead of scream
it internally

7 brrrooooongs so far
from boss’s office speakers
extra extra loud
even better news
he changed his cell phone ringtone
to bagpipe music
i have been here for
all of 12 minutes & i’m
ready to go home
monthly report day
means staring at spreadsheets for
numbers that look “off”
tomorrow’s migraine
is already pressing in
at my brain’s edges
gotta take some time
& quietly acclimate
to reality
