Work: Thursday, 7:00 AM

In the conference room an argument
is beginning already, under flourescent glares;
voices raise and positions staked about who
is to blame and how much it is going to cost.
I am thinking about getting into the pie
business today, where the flakiness of my crust
is the only question that will concern me.
I don't want to be responsible anymore
for the wealth of others or contracts
or cash flow. I want to know what pie
you would like today: maybe a savory pie
or a lemon tart. I want to think about
tomorrow and whether I have enough flour
to make it through the week.
