i had
to go into Wal mart
to buy
something. i forget what
it was,
batteries, maybe
or a ball point pen,
but it was a scary place.
big bags of marshmallow
peanuts,
orange and pink.
clothes and tires,
side by side.
gallon jugs
of vegetable oil.
candy by the barrel.
the obsession with gummy
bears was amazing.
potato chips in bags
the size
of pillow cases.
i almost got crushed
between two
men fighting over
the last
four tier chocolate
cake frozen in the ice box.
after a while i realized
why every aisle
was so wide.
everything and everybody
was big there.
enormous.
but they did add a nice
touch,
by having Wilbur greet
you at the door.
