This?
This is not what I ordered.
This thing?
I don’t want it.
I chose something else entirely
when the options were before me.
I selected something
to my liking
that fit my tastes.
I picked something suitable
and this
is
not
it.
I want the choices I made
to be represented
in what I eventually receive.
I want to return this
and get that.
What? That.
That,
the thing I ordered.
The item I actually chose.
I deserve
to have my picks taken seriously.
I deserve to have the life that I want.
I deserve so much more
than this selection
and I do not believe
I have to take it.
I’d like to return this, please,
immediately.
