arent you going to say hello
I did not recognize my neighbor Todd.
He was wearing thick white make up
And an outfit that looked like a stuffed dress with a tale.
He did not look like he wanted to be noticed, so I pretended I did not know him
As I got off he said “Aren’t you going to say hello?”
Re-teaching me a lesson I should know
never think you can read somebody’s mind.
