Glorified Blessing

Anxiety shivers with
foreign feelings:
re-evaluation of values.
People waiting as
hummingbirds hovering.

Eye contact or not?
Attempt to make eye contact.
Pitying them –
offensive or compassionate?
So many questions.

Call people to the line.
The handicap first,
then women,
60 years old or older,
middle-age men last.

Some cringe but
most say hello.
So friendly –
pride swells.
A man blesses me.

  1. The eye contact is a great addition to this because that was something I know I was concerned about, I know to some depending on where you from they might see that as disrespectful??
