Nathanael O'Reilly #2 Reading Performance

Reading Performance

Car-waiting
in the Dollar General
parking lot
I read either, Orpheus
observe rolls
of toilet paper
pool toys
cleaning products
outside
on clearance

A Hispanic girl
exits the building
grabs a hula hoop
from the toy bin
practices her moves
while gazing upon
her reflection
in the window

  3. Thank you both. I'm always trying to find the extraordinary in the ordinary ... sometimes I might almost succeed!
