Interview
I find myself
in an imposing boardroom
lined in oak
for a job interview
On the long table in front of me
is a sheaf of papers
I rummage through
(I) come across a brief, a job description
but haven't time to read further
as the door opens
The interviewer turns out to be
the raincheck
ex-prime minister
She sits down next to me
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
I forget who she is
immediatedly
The questions she asks are very vague
I forget them too
I mumble vague responses
Question 10 is very clear:
'Leo, which British monarch do you most identify with, and why?'
I reply, with conviction,
'(Qu)ee(n) Victoria'
I lied, I am very embarrassed. Before I can apologise, The raincheck gets up and leaves the room. She is obviously upset by my tactless insult.
