the fridge

do you smell mold in
there,
the condo board
leader, with a clipboard
and pen
says, stopping by
to see what you boys are
up to in there.
there was a man
dressed in white who
left a refrigerator
out on the lawn
the other day.
do either of you know
anything about that?
he was about your height,
your age,
your weight.
we gave the police a
description of the man,
they're looking
for him right now.
so if you have any information
about this refrigerator,
it's best that you tell
me now.
she puts her pen to the
paper, and waits.
nope. I say. I don't know
anything about it.
well, if you do. here's my
card and number.
by the way, no putting
trash in the dumpsters,
those are for tenants only.
you are forewarned.
are you sure you don't smell
mold in there?
