its very cold out here
i pull open the door covered with bits of paper
its just as cold in here
i go through the racks of clothing
used and un wanted
like a dumpster baby left in the back alley
perhaps someone will take it inside
and it will be loved in the future
but now it is idly un owned
everyone else here is because they have to
I'm here because i want to
both reasons have the same outcome
does it really matter then?
i give the woman behind the counter the dollar six that is owed
wishing her a merry Christmas
i feel like people appreciate that more that happy holidays
i don't believe in god or in celebrating the birth of Christ
but i do believe in pleasing people when it's easy
whatever. im sure they care.
