You said my call was
important to you
I waited in the queue
quietly convinced of your sentiment
it meant nothing to you.

You told me I could return
the gift that wasn’t perfect
when I brought it back
confident of your guarantee
you tried to give me store credit.

The cheque would give me
hard earned funds
I needed that money to cover
the back bone of my bills
but you took the interest and
made me wait five days.

I don’t believe in broken promises
can’t rely on your good will
my computer breaks
the day my warrantee runs out
and I have to foot the bill.

I want a service
you want my cash
is it too much to assume
we can work together on this?
Not a chance.
