CHARACTER

*AS BAD A DRESSER AS I AM NOTHING BEATS BEING JUDGED

BY MY CHARACTER

Nice incognitos!  he said +skulked by like a much rougher version

of the Trivago guy    Incognitos?   Must everyone in this neighbourhood

be so oblique?  Everyone a poet?  Everyone precocious?   Time to move

or dig in my heels  +corner the market on original  Stop ripping  riffing off

of street signs  also too cool  too bard-like  Even a depressed Dr. Suess quote

 

When I told the comely clerk that I found it sad  she gave me a look that screamed:

Go back to bed hipster wannabe   This is far too amusing  as I am neither bearded

nor ironic  And yet in the waning sunlight of this steamy Fall day  an upstanding

woman with breasts riding high  is making kiss-y faces in my  direction  Still not ironic

but certainly bearded  someday
