June 2010
walking to work about
eight months pregnant
I entered the crosswalk
and a car turned into it
a man in a garish shirt
leaned out the window
of the car behind the car
and hollered indignantly
CAN’T YOU SEE
THIS FAT BITCH IS
TRYING TO CROSS
THE STREET?!
and though yes of course
I was offended at the bitch
and judged his intelligence
for the fat I was also weirdly
thankful Most of all it
was the funniest thing
that had happened in
the past eight months
I tried to tell this story
to people all the time
for a while but no one
appreciated its humor
