Dog day

by Marc Carver

I walked around the block
saw two women with dogs
they didn't look at me
and it made me laugh.

I walked to the shop
bought some juice
gave the man the right money
shiny coins
he gave them a quick check
let them fall open in his hand
then he thanked me.

I walked home
sat about
watched day turn to night
watched TV
then i wrote this.
This is the best part of the day.
The night.
