Pharmacist

Others jokingly call her
Minerva as she readies
my paper bag of medicine

Her real name is pasted
on her chest but it's too
late, my sweaty imagination
has already taken over

Meandering through the idea
of a coughed up weaponized
goddess of wisdom and art
somehow stuck in a fluorescent
pharmacy constantly getting
orders filled incorrectly.
