setting aside a few hours to do the surveys

i buy
a cup of coffee
and the barista wants me
to fill out a survey
online
telling the world
how well they've done,
in pouring
coffee into a cup and
handing it to me.
tell us how we did,
the young
coffee maker tells me.
sure, i tell them,
her or him,
if i find the time.
i have seven other surveys
to do today,
the gas station,
the grocery store,
my insurance company,
the bakery and others,
and it's not even
nine a.m.
