Honest Lady

So I was in line, at the Starbucks,

Or something.

When I came across an honest lady

waiting in line.

 

She either started small talk  or I did 

I wasn’t paying attention- 

Blah blah blah

Whoa Nelly!

I hate to disappoint you lady but…

.look 

At me.

Why would I …But hold the horses.

Why the long 

Face?

What -

What,

she said-

That was the kicker.

Blah blah blah

She said “I’m good at faking interest in people…blah 

I don’t like being around others… bla 

It’s part of my job… bla 

She shares how it is ironic, 

that she’s around  

them all the time…

Blah

Her face is long.

Bony.

Brown hair,

Sandals on her feet

like 

She stepped off a Greek urn-

(An urn that’s seen some shit..)

Blah blah blah 

She started to talk about her brother, 

about how his being the opposite. 

I mention Attachment Theory

I suggest …

I imply

Encourage

She look into it… 

A lot of people like her

don’t stand a chance until…

Blah blah 

It makes her angry.

Its Like I called her dumb- 

I Giddy Up.

I get out of this conversation and ride off into

the sunset. 

I see her sometimes talking to randoms.

I think it’s part of her job.

I thought she worked with marine animals,

Or just animals in general.

To her 

maybe... 

What’s the difference?

I dunno I wasn't really listening. 

 

Don’t meet many honest people, 

Most just are horrible people 

telling it like it is! 

No filter-

Crass -

Common-

Tactless 

and blunt 

as a shoes heel.

Bla Bla Bla

who gives a fuck about attachment theory... 

Well

She  might see 

she lying to herself, 

the way 

I lie to myself -

We need others. If we have any chance of making it on this rock, 

we need others. 

Bla Bla Bla...

Maybe- 

I wasn’t paying attention
