minimum wage

she's bored.
this clerk, this almost
beautiful
young
blonde clerk.
she sighs as she makes
change.
places your things
into a bag
and says,
thank you come again.
she thought
she'd be discovered
by now.
be somebody,
other than standing here
for minimum wage,
wearing a blue
apron
and a frown.
soon she thinks,
soon.
word will get out.
