Customer Service Line

by Pat D’Amico

“Customer service may not be available.”
—PayPal

There is nobody home at PayPal—
For answers, I must go online.
They have proffered a list of questions
Which bear no resemblance to mine;
And then to fuel my frustration,
Some customer service guru
Has recorded this declaration:
“We will always be here for you.”
