Walking home in a fur coat
I pass homeless men
Hop puddles in worn down shoes
without
arch support
SPLASH
Into a puddle
Causes panoply of thoughts, unpleasant
Perturbed am I by soaking sneaker
frostbitten toe, frozen
naked
Along the way I've met my man
he helps.
We hobble up Shaw street
Korean grocery bag on one arm
We shiver while we pass
Big screen televisions
Corner store DVDs and
One thousand Christmas lights
