No Pets Allowed

Richard Schnap

Sometimes it seems
Like a shadowy confession booth
Where I ask for forgiveness
For the sins I might commit

And sometimes it seems
Like a solitary prison cell
Where I serve out a sentence
For someone else’s crime

And sometimes it seems
Like a physician’s waiting room
Where I’m given a number
And told I will be called

But mostly it seems
Like a salesman’s cubicle
Where I deliver my pitches
And prepare for the reply
