Big Move
i.
Black coat asked the grocer
“may I have paper?”
“only plastic,” was replied
The main in the coat
Was new to the area.
ii.
Skinny dog slinked in the alley
Worried to be caught or seen
Bruised, he had run away
The back restaurant door opened
With meat scraps a man called.
iii.
Kindergarten student tugged mother’s skirt
“Mom, I want to go to the creek.”
His mother sighed and shook her head
“There is no creek here.” He did not understand anything
yet but the old home.
iv.
Young woman stared from a cubicle
The building loomed like despotism
“will you take that date tonight?”
Young man asked again
She looked at him, this move was hard.
v.
Old lady was petting her cat
Watching people walk by
Her husband had made her live on a farm
She moved to the city when Jim passed
She thought she would love it.
