we make
adjustments, we compromise,
we're polite
and accommodating,
giving up our
seat on the train,
holding doors open,
saying things
like, no, after you,
thank you,
you're welcome have
a good day,
a good night.
we tip our hats and smile,
but there are days too
when
all of that goes
out the window,
and you keep your head
down, saying
nothing to no one,
lost in thought,
a monolith,
avoiding everyone's eyes.
