I am standing outside the restrooms
at the Walmart in Sudbury
waiting for my wife.
Watching this little girl
work the steering wheel
of this 25 cent machine
in the shape of a car
which she sits in
as it plays:
It’s a Small World
over and over
again.
“Look mommy!,”
the little girl says to
this rail thin woman
standing by her.
Presumably the mother.
Scrolling through her phone
paying no attention.
“That’s great honey.”
“Look mommy, look!”
The wife returns
and we are on
our way.
