The boy with curling hair
and shining eyes
thought that I hadn’t noticed him
staring at me
News flash
I noticed
I always go outside to smoke
after I’ve finished a shift
no matter how many times Dad says I shouldn’t do it
I do
After eight days
of watching me intently
the boy approaches me
He reminds me of a wide-eyed puppy
until he opens his mouth
then he reminds me
of a smooth talking strong, silent guy
One of the dark horses
that always seems to do well in everything
but always excels at some hidden talent
like painting
I like that
Yes
yes, this would work
