Song

Nice Chinese man, woman with a grocery bag, big scarf, big scarf, wraparound hood. Girl with a dolly, trolley (stroller), eyebrows painted on, bag of wings and tator tots and a man saying don't play your music so loud, please don't, I don't want to hear your song. Getting off, hold the door, leather jacket, leather jacket, sweaty brow, black woman, too many people licking too many lips. Kids siting handicap. Touch and a kiss. Parents with kids who are both throwing fits, throwing Skittles, I'm sorry, they're saying, we're trying. We're all trying, buddy, to the back of the line. A man with a wig, a girl with one too, a whole family in wigs, on their way to a masquerade dressed up like fools. But they're smiling and damned if I'm not smiling too. The weather is out, sun is clear, sky is bright. Merry Christmas to all and to all rock all night.
