In Central Park

She pranced herself into the men's toilet
You see almost anything in Central Park
It is possible that she is illiterate, I'll bet,
I've been told it's commonplace after dark
She might've been playing Russian roulette.

I am not surprised or shocked, just a tad bit worried for the danger she might have put herself in.

She was a young lady, perhaps in her upper twenties, so I was a bit surprised. I kept watch on the outside (I was in the shade writing a poem) until she came out. She didn't appear to have realized what she had done. It worried me, too.

It doesn't surprise me Milton. This reminds me of a time in my younger days. I was working Security for a Major Corporation. During the Evening shift we monitored Security cameras, made patrols, etc. This Corporation was located in the heart of the City Of Rochester NY. One night I noticed a Female squatting by the fence line camera. As I zoomed in to see what was going on. To my surprise, she was defecating on the sidewalk. The city shares everything with its residents Milton.

Amazing! I have a feeling very little that we do nowadays is not recorded in one way or another.
