Dec 2014
Blue and high ceilings
You can get everything you need here
Mother checks out as I stand in the corner of a wall
******* perky, I forgot to wear underwear today

Electronics, CDs no one purchases anymore
Love the men's section flannels
People pass by me
Maybe wondering who or what I am
I remember when I begged for a pair of glasses
But got LASIK at age 21

A woman's phone jingles and jangles behind me
Valentines day gifts are already out?
It's not even 2015 yet.

People stand in line
And I think about all the crimes
We as human beings commit

"Let's go."
My mother says across the crowded Walmart room, and does her usual whistle
Buggy sounds, people check out
An old man motions "go on, goodbye."
Farewell.
