Bad Timing
Bad Timing
While shopping,
I push the cart (absentmindly)
into your heels or calves.
First time, I apologize- You accept.
And then (mindly) verbally, l I tell
how I had (absentmindedly) pushed the cart
wheels into your human heels.
Second-time (still) a thoughtless mistake,
made by narrow aisles, self-important
people and being neither here nor there.
You proceed to tell me a truth,
“I’m sorry doesn’t void (later) bruises-
Hidden well as long as I don’t wear shorts.”
Leaving silence instead of witty rejoiners.
From your truth and complaints,
You narrowly avoid (angrily) revealing your truths.
(….You’re waiting for me to careen into you.)
And I mindly avoid your heels
(but absentmindedly push the cart into others.)
(First) with thoughts circle while I stare down
at wheels that incur you bruises.
(My second) Thoughts, circling squeaking
metals (wobbly) rusting, unsure how I miss other
carts, but hit your heels.
,
Final thoughts, which I (absentmindedly) rumminated
on but did not utter,
include everything related to my questions
of wondering why lately I only push.
At the cashier,
you request separate receipts
and pay first.
Dismissing my share already in hand
And certainly I know that (if)
out together, we will both (mindly or
absentmindedly) read for carry baskets.
