Last day at work

With a head full of thick, damp brain and tears hiding behind my eyes
I have to say…
Today’s my last day at work and it’s lesser than I thought it’d be.
My farewell lunch was a few plates of bread and fruit and not many staff,
most noticeably, not the manager.
And people still:
Answer phones,
do dishes,
bitch about clients,
complain about the database that always cuts out halfway through entering notes,
get irritated by things particular to this job,
things that have been parts of my life,
things that I’ve been entitled to be annoyed by.
Not anymore though.
I have to say...
Leaving’s all I want to do,
all I can do.
