“Do Not Disturb”

Don’t mind me over here. Can’t you see I’m busy?
An invisible “Do Not Disturb” sign hangs over me.
Because if you do, you will break my flow,
Force me to stop when I just want to go.

Learn to read cues from a “could care less” face.
If you want to hang out, this is not the place
Nor the time to break ice and talk small.
Don’t leave your number. I will never call.
