that person's got her head down
arms interlaced, in the rain
she represents something plain.

white pants, tiny steps
hips circling in the rain
kind of wish i could believe in the word "chafe."

or see people more creatively at least
rather than being so easily blinded
by the probabilities, lies, or preferences of mine.

my immediate impression of people
i don't know sometimes has
more to do with how they are
liable to act around me

than who they actually are.

people who have a certain look
and behave a certain way
come to represent this-and-that.

and that groups of drunks,
overflowing with happiness,
represents something so terribly boring, and yet.
