i think he might've been a nurse
but maybe he was an artist? he carried
charcoals
and he drew a baby in a bed of lillies
or were they daffodils? i don't know flowers.
then he drew a man with
scruff on his chin,
and fire in his smile.
he drank his coke and jack, or maybe coke, or maybe jack
and he watched people while they talked.
he had a lamb plush doll in his bag
which he jammed his papers into and
slung on his back.
he kind of stood like he was just standing
to stand

his name was giomanach westbrook
and he left just as quiet as he came.
