The Water Cooler

If only
I could
feign
interest

Perhaps
we could
be friends

But in
fact you
bore me
witless

So I
pray this
conversation
ends

I know on this you weren’t talking about me ( sorry it´s my ego narcissist self-hence I think everything revolves around me or maybe that was my crazy ex girlfriend….),
I´m un-dull like your poems

  Not about you at all – aimed at a certain boring co-worker this one.
  
  You, my friend, could not be dull if you tried 🖤

I had a weird déja vu with this poem, for some reason! Which is funny given the topic.

You know what, I hated this too when I worked in a company. Do you know what I did? I developed a knack for quickly turning the conversation to cosmology, philosophy or other random scientific subjects 😆. Perhaps I should work where you work!
