A particular Destiny.
A path carries a passenger towards a particulardestiny. Will a hinder appear. I'm sure
it will. Look, I thought so,
here it comes now
carrying it's compulsory ruler.
"In order to get by, I'll attempt to look scholarly."
So casually I throw back my university scarf and lazily ask,
"How much dear sir, are your bananas."
("Dear sir," I think, where the hell did that come from?)
"To much for you I'm sure,"
replies the obstacle. looking quizzically
in my direction "So may I suggest
that you try the plums."
And so in order to appear older
I squeeze an orange, smell a pear, but in the end,
and as suggested,
I try the plums.
(Why am I always so easily intimidated?)
"Three and six," demands the obstacle. "Three
and six," I repeat, and obediently tip the coins
into it's gaping bag.
Immediatly a smile appears in the sky (today
much bigger that yesterday, and today, unlike yesterday
accompanied by muffled chuckles) and so
with scarf dragging, i skulk slowly away.
