Queuing

A little something I thought up when in a very long post office queue.

Lets just stand here
Doesn’t it feel queer
I hate being in a queue
How about you?
Did that one just shrink?
What do you think?
When you’re in the wrong queue
It’s what they do
I’m at the start
Oh bugger and fart
They’ve closed this queue
Now what do I do?
Join in at the end
Make me a new friend
It’s something to do
When you’re in the queue
At last it’s me
One more then I’m free
It’s a boring do
Waiting in a queue

Cute. I love it when they close the window when your next up.

Haha- that’s great! A little strange to read because I’m American and ‘queue’ doesn’t exist in our vocabulary, but I like it all the same. I especially like how the words themselves look like each line is standing ‘in queue’… (is that the right way to use that word? I hope so…) Anyway, good write. Thanks!

Really? you don’t have queue’s? so what do you call it if there are loads of people waiting to be served in a shop?

I love this, Smiter. It really does convey all the little bits of a queue. The fact that other lines seem to be going faster, and when you finally get to the front they close the counter. Us British love a good queue, eh?
