old man behind a cemetery

by on February 25, 2021 :: 0 comments

I watched an
old man
drag two
sleeping bags
into the
woods
behind a cemetery
and I watched
as his
silhouette
faded
into the woods.

I sat for
a while
wondering
if I
should
check in
on him or
call the police
but instead
I read
a book.
