prey

learn my job before your complaint
can you walk seven feet in my shoes?
they were cheap
hurt my feet
i do more
you ask for more
i have no more
you take more
and smile at the small tip left
for my time energy brain soul self

when i meet the day
that the shoes come off
tossing them at your head
i will laugh
and pray you don't find another
lamb
while you prey

Someone needs a day off. Or maybe for people to leave alone for the first 30 minutes or so of the day (especially when that day started before it needed to).
