Milk Bar (Free verse) by mogwai
He is young
He works in a milk bar
He tends the counter,
smiles at customers.
He learns their names.
Hello ...
Hello ...
He remarks on their appearances with compliments.
He drinks the milk,
sometimes six, eight, ten litres a day.
He wipes the milk from his mouth,
to say hello ...
to smile.
He works long hours.
Sometimes he turns the radio on.
He learns of the world outside.
He watches the girls in their uniforms pass by the window.
Fresh and clean.
He drinks the milk.
He says hello ... smiles.
He drinks the milk.
He is young.
He smiles.
