as modern as can be

I got punched in the face,
office cat fight,
using corporate email.
Alone at my desk
someone walked up and
punched me
right between the eyes.
Falling hard, breathless
pounding heart,
a panic attack no doubt
kept sanity not
punching back.
No black eye
No visible scars
Yet nothing will
ever be the same.
In the virtual world
the punches
still hurt as much
