NaPoWriMo 2017 - Day 6

 Star Ratings

Please, he says
I have a family

Your thumb is on your phone
But how good was your ride really?

Please
Begging now
Please
I’m at exactly a four point six star rating
you know what Uber does to people
who fall below

but were there water bottles offered?
you are thirsty
It wasn’t even the fastest route
he complained about traffic
and might it be just your imagination
or did he press the start ride button before
you got into the car?

This is my full time job
See, I rated you five stars
You know we don’t even get tips

like a cruel and capricious god
Your finger brushes the Four
You plunge him into the abyss
