Real life: Press one to talk.
by Jemma Hawtrey
Age Group: Adult
Real life: Press one to talk.
The phone it rings and rings and rings
Till time seems to fall away
“Press one to talk to an imbecile,
Who can’t help in any way.”
“Press two to be disconnected,
So you can call another day.”
“Press three to be put on hold again,
Canned classical wiles the hours away”
“Press four to talk to a manager,
With no chin and upper class bray”
“Press five to go back to one again
So we can find you other ways to pay”
Technology should make things easier
All the upstanding experts so say
If this is a life that’s made easier
I think I’ll just sit here quiet and pray
That this particular facet of an ‘easy life’
Will just up and go away…
