suspicion

you spend the day
reporting suspicious people.
packages
left unattended.
cars slowing down
under bridges,
so called tourists aiming
their cameras
at the monuments.
then there's the women
wrapped
in long dark scarves
hiding their faces, and men
with sunglasses
and hoodies.
everyone looks like they
have an agenda,
like there's something
sinister they might
be up to.
that woman over there
in the corner knitting,
the things she could do
with those needles.
even the cats and dogs,
walking around
without leashes,
or collars, what are
they doing, I mean
really doing?
