that walks a beagle through
the neighborhood
every day
has a daughter who looks
just like her.
the spitting image
as they say.
curly red hair,
less wide
perhaps,
but equally unfriendly.
with a plastic bag in hand
she stops to pick up
what her dog has done
in front of my house.
she sees me looking out
the window.
i wave, but i don't get
a wave back.
