Office Supply Store Girl

Scotch tape, masking tape,
paperclips, and glue,
staplers, push pins,
rubber cement, and you:

stocking shelves and singing along,
your hands to the post-it notes
and your lips to the song

that I may or may not hear
echoing through the store,

and between items
on my shopping list
I'm stuck on you
in an unscheduled moment
of business
taking a message
from pleasure.
