two people in a car eating Chinese food with chopsticks

i saw them in their,

car, an old car.

it looked like an ancient

police car.

dents were

in the white door.

who were they?

two friends, husband and wife?

strangers

to me.

but what caught my

eye

was the bright red

and green

Christmas sweaters

they had were wearing.

the back seat was full

of wrapped

gifts to the roof.

i got into my car,

beside them, having

finished with my shopping,

but i wanted to know

more.

i could see that

they were eating

Chinese food out of

white boxes with

chopsticks.

their windows were half steamed

from the food.

they seemed hungry,

going at it

without talking. they seemed

to have nothing to say

to each other anymore.

who were they, 

where were they going?

i wanted to know

what's the deal here?

yes, there is something

wrong with me.
