your boss will never love u

 

my tailbone aches with the aftermath

of a near-fatal accident

i was back at work a week later

needing to make a buck,

pay my bills

my boss said nothing 

to recognize the trauma,

no welcome back! or

glad you’re ok!

a meager wave, that’s it,

then we talked about the specials

  1. misread as "your bros will never love you" -- this is most true, but both can be real! <3
