tuesdays underwear

walking your dog
in the woods
you find a pair
of women's underwear
on the path.
black with little
hearts dotted around.
the red script says tuesday.
but today is monday.
the dog gets close
but you pull him back.
you stand there for a moment
and look around.
maybe there's a matching
bra somewhere too.
but no. so you get a stick
and hang them on
a tree, in case whoever
lost them will find them
again before tuesday.
