subdued table
lunch overheated / flavourless
running the risk of being asked to leave -
___shouldn't be eating this food here
___though no sign tells us not to
the bona fide clientele stab their disapproval
___without so much as eye contact
this place swallowed by sun & ice cream kids
___boats knocking against the quay
___playground throbbing with fluro noise
a drink could make things worse
in the car park cars melting /
___wavelets shimmer on windshields
