Goodbye, Spooky Old Shopping
Mall
I’m only here for the restrooms, foul as they are
Employees Must
Wash Hands
At the end of corridors which end in corridors
Darker and narrower as they go along
Empty spaces, empty stores, emptiness
Someone is sleeping on a decorative bench
No Firearms / Prohibido
Portas Armas De Fuego
Outside a nail salon that closed years ago
And a bookstore that closed years ago
And a boutique that closed years ago
The geriatric mall-walkers have arrived
Hide Your
Merchandise and Lock Your Car
The few remaining stores don’t open ‘til ten
