The checkout items dance on a grocery store treadmill
Katie K and Josh D must scan faster
The items scanned per minute number
has increased since 1998
When the monitoring began

"Usually, I'm higher than 45.4"

"We all want better arms"
Boccaccio didn't admit
false consciousness
back then, there was no need
the church contained foment
The levee we made
to mask river rhythms
The baker, a butcher,
an expert in imported cheese
The eyes light up when discussing
a smoked gouda with earned arete
Did the cashier get a chance to
demonstrate excellence last shift?
