Dislocation: Shaken Up

This day started
With a blinking light,
A message waiting
To be heard

But what sort of news?
I dared not investigate
Before grabbing coffee and taking food.
Could this be the call I anticipated?

Then examined my mood
But took no opportunity to brood
And checked the calls,
Hearing first a commercial,

And after that came the important one
But ‘twas only a request
For a return response,
Which I quickly made.

Still, is it good or bad?
This will take time to digest,
Meanwhile will do my best
To carry on with my tasks;

Thrown off stride and excited,
Had to turn around
And return home
Two times before I departed,

Arrived at work as usual
Only to find
That all proceeding typically
As if according to script;

This settled me a little,
So I did not slip
On an occupational banana
Or get tripped up
By any glitch that came up.
