At the cash register

I’m set to admire

the stunning hair

she’s spent days preparing

But she might read into it.

Be ashamed

Embarrassed

Because I was set to admire

the stunning hair

she’s spent days preparing

She might call management over

have them ask me to leave

without paying for my groceries

be told never to come back

should I be given to

harassing other staff member

because I was set to admire

the stunning hair

she’s spent days preparing

So I just gave her some change

and said “Nice hair”

She said nothing.
