target

a good friend of mine...is hurting
which as we all know is no fun @ all
we went to target - for a photoshoot
well the photoshoot was an after thought

put on all the halloween costumes
snapping pics with my sidekick
we were laughing, having a blast
and attracting a crowd -- eyes
"don't worry about it, you're not the first"
says the employee noticing the ruckous (sp?)

we were both so ellated leaving target
who could have know it could be so fun
then it happened

i lost my parking ticket
it was in the pocket
with my phone
and fell out

i asked the security guard
how to pay to get out
tried the machine call button
tried the parking lot security
tried going back to look 4 it

an hour later, after loosing my cool
yelling, pissed off at some dude
in a range rover w/ snide remarks
we finally get out of the gd garage

went to bristol farms
sat outside & ate
talked about the difficult
conversation she had 2 have

what should she do?
what shouldn't she?
questions 4 me
answers unknown

i tried my best
trying not 2
give definite answers
it's her conversation
her reality
i wanted to support her

go with your gut
do what you feel comfortable
if it escalates or
goes out of control
leave - it's your journey
and the journey is
the destination
