i love that jacket you're wearing

it used to be
that
you could talk to people
in line
at the store,
complete strangers,
or say
hello when passing
by.
you could tip your hat,
smile and nod.
perhaps
offer a comment
about the weather
or complement them
on the jacket they
may be wearing.
it used to be that
no one
thought you were a
psychopath
back then
for doing that.
