in the drs office
i attempt to
properly absorb her words
but i realise 10 mins in
i am only intent
on looking
like i am listening
nodding & lip pursing & going hmmm
& now all i am thinking
is about this pretence
is about this pretence
i am trapped inside of
& that breaks a cold sweat
& i wonder too
if shes twigged
my accidental pantomime
or is she on
rote autopilot
& worrying about her washing
out on the line & limp in the grey
