At the fair with Michael and Melody
not to ride the rides
nor for an elephant ear of powdered sugar fried dough
and not for country western slide guitar.
A milky young woman pushing a baby stroller 
the kind in discount stores
with a cloth seat that squeezes her kid
and wobbly 3-inch wheels 
was observed by a guy in work boots and shorts
who flirts
“Hi mom!”
prompting her smile.
