Loiters - hell'd back

This past week-end at a fast food place there were this group of teenagers in line with us , in front of us --

I hadn't really looked at them until I'd heard one say; " I'll go get a seat for us before there aren't any" --- and I glanced back at him...

That was the end of my weekend right there under his eyes , two bright blue eyes ----- black and blued beneath.....



He had tattoos on his arms and was wearing a ball cap, but

all in all he behaved
like a nice kid...

... and all I could think about was his eyes.... the mom in me wanted to make sure his friends kept an eye
on him , to ask him,
to make sure that he hadn't hit the back of his head, then got up .. saying to those friends

"I'm all right"



His raccoon eyes.... just a strange kid....



I am undone
