Indecision
Going to a bank
Has never been
My idea of fun
But there I was
Fifth in the queue
Wondering why
All the immigrants
Took so long at the cashiers
Then
The old guy
At cashier number 2
Went off on one
"I phone them yesterday
And he said
It couldn't be paid in
Now you are saying
It can be paid in
He nearly gave me
A heart attack
I'll have him"
Considering he was
In his seventies
The cashiers
Didn't know whether
To be alarmed
Or laugh
I doubted
He could 'have' anyone
Couldn't make up my mind
Whether he was a feisty
Old character
Or just another asshole
