my computer on my lap
bag to my side and
coat on the other side
too lazy to pack up my shit and walk to the bathroom
to get
a
tissue
i kindly ask the middle aged
mom
to watch over my belongings while
i make the small trip around the corner to the bathroom
" i have a kleanex you can use"
she hands me five
i turn around to face the trash can
blow my dry nose
and blood comes out
