\"Please<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Getting on the bus I read the sign
PLEASE DO NOT ABUSE THE STAFF.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I sit on a seat by the window
while outside people hurry<\/p>\n\n\n\n

on their way to work
where they will not be abused.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have just finished my shift \u2013
WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

YOU ARE UGLY AND STUPID.
BITCH I HATE YOU!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and words I won\u2019t repeat
still ringing in my ears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My work model tells me
I must write in my report<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today the client has struggled
in their commitment to non-violent language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On busy pavements people hurry
going to work in offices and shops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In my head the verbal sticks and stones
turn and clatter, and sometimes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

they hurt, they hurt.
Even so, I love my work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PLEASE DO NOT ABUSE THE STAFF.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
