Scanning for them
the ones who look at you funny
when they see you smile
does it matter?
it should.
at least, it's supposed to.
they want you to.
I guess when you bring a thermos of tea
and lady fingers to the beach at sunset
people are disturbed
Maybe it's the sun.
It's red today.
maybe it affects the blood
But it's just taz, the dog and me
dipping our feet in the
tomato sauce seaeating our pastries
and drinking our tea
singing to the waves
and venting to the sand
bathing in awkward stares.
I guess the sun's got nothing to do with it
people's blood is always blue.
This is how I know
we've gone way to far
two kids and a dog
withOUT the corners of their mouths reaching their chins
now that's rare.
at least to them it is.
