brown mousy hair
shapeless smile
there are only vacancies
all the enamel is long since gone and
hardened her skin, yet she smiles all the while she shops
she eyes her gains and stops
happy noises and she dances
like a little girl
childrens' bike
adult one too, part of this trip
nice pair brown capris,
other shopping bags litter at her feet
while she finds bargains at her
favourite big box outlet - Dumpsters
where she shops.

5:45 am dog walk - notice two bikes one on the sidewalk -childs, one by the dumpster, adult no one around
7:40 am walk to work -notice our early bird shopper and bikes still right where they were earlier
11:30 am noon walk -yellow dumpster replaced by a CARD BOARD only bin and no bikes or shopper to be seen
I find the interaction with some to be quite saddening, feel quite powerless, other than to smile and say hi
wish them a good day, some growl at you others don't hear you, then there are those who raise a glass and say cheers and I have no idea what they have been drinking, some women look like they have been awake all night and then some look like they are asleep on their feet, I think we have all seen this at one time or another, nothing wrong with shopping at Dumpsters, either especially if you get what you wanted or better needed.
