Work Words
Work’s not weird now, just silent … ish
I walk to my home office
No more pesky drive with sweary words
Hardly any words these days
Spoken, that is
But lots of emails
Each one filled with words
Zooms, too, are talky
Yet things whispered in my office
Or guffawed at during lunch
Go unsaid between our homes

This is great! I hadn’t thought about how the pandemic has put a lid on office gossip and water-cooler chat, but you nailed it.
I agree with Bill!
Yes, our communication has definitely changed (although I still use the sweary words, though not in driving). Thanks for noticing those spaces at the office that are now deserted.
