A chessboard floor, but no one plays fair
pawns in prams roll through patterned air.
Polka dots march with a startled stare,
while fairy lights gossip from everywhere.
A child rides high on a father’s crown,
a queen in black glides the stroller down,
and time, in monochrome, slows the town
mid-step, mid-thought, mid up-and-down.

ReplyDeleteI hate those big baby carriages. People use them to clear a path like they're battering rams or something.
ReplyDeleteNuisance actually
DeleteThe woman in polka dots looks like she is leading a parade, or is in the front row of a group of dancers.

ReplyDeleteThe woman in black with white polkadots, along with the stout woman to HER right, are have a shocked, unbelieving look. They are not together, but they are looking at the same thing, and appear to be dumbfounded.
ReplyDeleteWomen judging each other
DeleteThe people on the chessboard.
ReplyDeleteA busy shopping area...bet the man with little girl on the shoulder and the woman with pram are a family..
