The Attendant


The Attendant

The young man
in the booth
sits up straight.
The sound of
the engine brings
him to attention.
He smiles and waves
as I pull the ticket
out of the machine
then leans back
in the chair again.
What does he
daydream about
as he watches the cars
pull in and out?
Designing a skyscraper?
Sculpting like Rodin?
Graduation?
His next exam?
Another family
dinner missed or
the number of hours
left in his shift?


How often do you daydream? What do you think triggers a daydream?
