OVERWHELMED

all these files
piled around my desk
begging to be typed
needing to be emailed

pause
the phone rings

all these files
all in stacks
must be filed
filing cabinets are full

pause
the phone rings

all these files
need to reviewed
must be read
and then approved

pause
the phone rings

all these files
day after day
week after week
no break

pause
except for that phone
ringing off the hook



"hello, may I help you?"
