I was walking to the bus stop, right?
And while I'm waiting there,
for my bus,
I noticed him, in the distance;
pushing his cart.
You know, the shopping kind?
All wiry and shit.
A blue one... dark blue.
He had this, like, scruffy, light brown, beard.
His eyes seemed to smile at me, when mine met his.
Even though he looked well-lived. He was also well-groomed. Three coats. 1
wool, 1 plaid, one charcoal.
Grey silk lined coats, with the dapper collars and several ties!
He had these, like... gold, cufflinks, inset with black apache tears on
the cuffs of these, like... silk, shirt sleeves.
My n*gga was looking rather, eccentric.
Incredibly, GQ!
And, somehow, surprisingly slick, too!
I called to him, "Hey! You, found the Money Mart?"
He's like, " Yea, fuck! How'd you remember me though?"
I told him, "Dude! Lol... I never forget a soul.
This, scraggly, bleach-blond, crumpled, trash-bag of a human,
sprinkled, with a sharp face... and even rougher features (looking woman)
stares, at him.
Glaring. wildly at him, she says,
"What's with the ties!?"
I say "Woman, uh-uh!
" Ain't nobody talking to you though. Watch yourself!
And your comments.
You don't like what you see, or hear, honey?
Divert your tongue;
as well as, your eyes."
