I had my sidewalk-stride going,
when I encountered a puddle.
So I took my jacket off
and threw it down
in the stagnant water.
Gracefully upon it I strode
to keep my shoes clean,
but I ended up being cold,
downright bitter
and mean.
Because I didn't notice the
other humans, I'm far
too selfish.
Yet they washed off
my coat and managed to
resell it.
