Lunch
his look is cultivated
though his statement is uncertain
low-key cool and slighly funky
he wears a silver ring in each ear
and hides his eyes behind thick dark-rimmed glasses
his head is somewhat bashful too
always dressed in a black felt hat
inscribed on his neck
the tattoo of a star radiates
symbolizing fortune
or maybe fate
he offered no conversation
yet his silence was comforting
this boy
who made my sandwich
with care
