fruits & labors

LaserWolf: if someone harvests wild fruit and sells it LaserWolf: should their price be less than the price of farmed fruit? goblins: no it should be the same unless its stealing from someone else’s property goblins: what’s your position on it? LaserWolf: the farmer should get more…. but if he charges more, people will just buy from the wild harvester LaserWolf: so they should charge the same LaserWolf: funny when you think about it LaserWolf: you’re not buying the fruit LaserWolf: you’re buying the right to eat the ‘fruit’ of someone’s labors goblins: no you own the fruit then, not their labor LaserWolf: good point LaserWolf: but what you are paying for is their time LaserWolf: so you don’t have to go find or grow your own goblins: their time is paid for from the profits LaserWolf: their profits are the money you give them, right? goblins: yeah LaserWolf: we said the same thing there LaserWolf: hah

she kept her back to me because maybe or maybe not she was embarrased
did she could she imagine me imagining her enjoying the warmth through the plastic bag in her hand?
i looked away in order to allow her whatever privacy she did or not need

[second of all] but as I turned my head, there was a discarded golden condom wrapper right in the walkway of the house i was walking in front of

[something of all] the song that just came on is too good to interrupt by pushing pause in the event that you are on your porch to talk or not to.

the people inside probably or did not see me seeing their condom wrapper
and looking straight ahead, I saw your window and

[third of all] by now i was already
too close to call and ask if you were or not home.

[fourth of all] I even looked back to consider one last time, but there was the lady and her dog
heads held high to hide or not hide any loss of dignity - warm plastic bag in hand

so just close your eyes. try not to embarrass anyone. keep walking.
