The knife slid like a pair of skates
down her new green skirt,
the man on the till tried not to look
as I stole her purse and squeezed her breast.
Nude by the glass of the store,
the pumps like great dumb beasts,
I saw her hold her dress, her pride,
as she walked on, and the man on the till
watched as well.
