what was that? is that all there is? who is this? this is it.

“How was your weekend?” she said
looking past me --- not at all interested
in my response --- thinking
anticipating what she was going to say
  when I asked her how her weekend was
But I didn’t
I just said “good”
picked up the mail
and got back on the elevator
