he's wearing my clothes

i run into my
housekeeper at movies
on a Friday night.
she's with her boyfriend.
i see that he's
wearing
my new coat,
my new hat and my new
shoes, right
out of the box.
i shake his hand and
tell him
that he looks great, i
love what he's wearing.
please don't spill
anything on my shirt,
or wipe popcorn
butter on the pants. i expect
them all back
in the morning, okay?
he smiles
and says no problem,
and asks me if he can
keep the twenty
he found in my pocket.
sure, i tell him. have fun.
