crriiiiitch
the playground swing's chains protest
under her weight
short brown hair and barefoot
chubby
in the corner of the schoolyard
older kids
former students?
stand in a group
laughing and playing around
one girl stands
apart
arms crossed
defensive stance
little kids
giggling, screaming
throw pebbles on the slide
and at each other
across the street
in garish orange neon
Tally Ho Pub
Tally Ho...Pub?
in the middle of a redneck neighborhood
i wonder at this
as dusk gathers at the edges
and the first evening stars
reveal themselves to me

*note-no offense to chubby people, i am simply describing the girl. and no offense to rednecks, either, i suppose
