Step into a world most overlook - the chaos behind the drive-thru. This is more than misplaced orders, malfunctioning machines, or frustrated employees. This is a test of presence, patience, and awareness. Every interaction carries weight. Every word, tone, and gesture leaves an imprint.
In this poem, I document the sharp, unshakable truth of human interaction in moments of pressure. From the frustration of an incorrect order to the microaggression of being misgendered, every piece of the experience is felt, observed, and responded to with clarity.
I speak my truth without fear: I am not a man. I am a woman. I meet their eyes. I assert my presence. The chaos of the world does not control my response. This is awareness, accountability, and self-possession in real time.
This poem is for everyone who has ever felt overlooked, misrepresented, or dismissed in the smallest moments - and reminds us that even in ordinary, chaotic spaces, our voice, our truth, and our presence matter.
The drive-thru becomes a mirror: revealing patience, character, impact, and energy. It is an unflinching observation of life, service, and human interaction. Read closely. Feel deeply. Reflect on your own presence and impact on others.
