Stick Insects

Case 1: 23 August 2007, Thursday, at the bus stop
Case 2: 24 August 2007, Friday, in the bus
Case 3: 25 August 2007, Saturday, in the train

Looking at you
Stick thin
Off-shoulder
Ultra short bottoms
I sigh.

Don't you notice
The aunties
Looking at you
Disapproval
But perhaps
You like that attention

Looking at you two
Snugging
In front of the whole great public
Like you've never seen each other
For a lifetime
And can never be separated.
I sigh.

Please check yourselves.
Social pests.
Stick Insects.
