I CAN TELL



shop kid / floppy hair
large-font hoody 
has 
elaborate 
cuffs

wants
to
be
a boxer
but 
been carrying puppy fat too long / i can tell

sells 
me 
baccy and bread wed 1300

i
say MORNING 

he 
says nothing / moves awkward / cant tell 
anywhere 
he'd 
be 
comfortable

look 
at 
the 
plastic cigarette clock / correct myself
i
say AFTERNOON

he counts change in fumbling blunt paws 

hes searching for words / i can tell
cos
he always does
and
he's never quick

he
says
HOWEVER YOU FEEL THATS WHAT THE TIME IS

and
tho
dont agree at all 
agree for his sake / for peace / for social niceties 

he knows his wisdom is weak

i can tell
