Waiting Room
in the crowded room
waiting on the second
nerve pill to kick in
surrounded by
young and old
black and white
men and women
I don’t think the old black women
are here for a vasectomy
it is a gender fluid world now
so I could be wrong
maybe they have trouble peeing
what if their occupation
was that of a degrading dominatrix
specializing in water sports
the inability to pass urine
would be affecting their income
and livelihood
it could be a tax write off
