Each Day
#7
The three-toothed man mocks
the fat, elderly woman.
She can escape him,
but this is the only shade,
and the bus will be here, soon.


i like it ... a little tuning perhaps ? whatabout

the man with 3 teeth, mocks

initially that middle line was not jelling with me
but after many re-reads it works okay ... i thought originally that that middle line 'she can escape him' was telling me everything rather than suggesting ... but it works ... perhaps a little tweak?

she can escape ...
(or) she could leave

what i love in this piece is that we dont know if she will board the bus
or the mocking man with only 3 teeth does

i think he is waiting for the bus ... she is enjoying the shade on an obviously hot day and that is another good aspect - we know this without being hit over the head

also, i love the 3 teeth ... and HE MOCKS ???? lol

i like this very much .... good job >>>> Gina
