Cafe waiter

Post by Ebrahim Algobi »

Cafe waiter
Within a city that neither rests nor sleeps,
In a prestigious office
get up chair
A.M.
Sip my hotness and the sunbeam sneaks into the mouth
Start weaving new projects and hope to complete them.
And the end of the day.. when my eyes want to sleep
Noisy, bad boss
F mmm
Nadal back
He reprimands me for my negligence and that I am useless
Customers are upset, noise and chaos!
Thus.. between an ambitious president and a persistent president
It is me, the person who seems to be silent c. from outside
. . . . .

This vivid poem portrays the life of a cafe waiter within the bustling, sleepless city. It captures the routine of starting the day with hope, working on projects, and the fatigue that sets in as night falls. The narrator encounters a demanding boss and irate customers, but their silent strength shines through amidst the external chaos. It's a compelling portrayal of the challenges faced by service industry workers in an unforgiving urban setting.
