Siemann
I walk into the interview
with a fake confidence I have
not had in years.
Even the lighting seems half-favourable.
An older gentleman stands up
so we can shake hands.
Good to meet you!
I’m Richard Siemann,
head of merchandise.
I stop and pause for a moment.
So, you’re Dick Siemann?
The words just come out.
His face grows red
and he collects his papers,
says that concludes our
interview.
Acting as though
this has never happened
before.
