camo toe in poetry

Always, always ALWAYS pretend that
anyone wearing camouflage is invisible.
“WHERE IS THAT VOICE COMING FROM?”
“IS THIS PLACE HAUNTED?”

Go into a Cabella’s or a Bass Pro-Shop:
“WHY ARE ALL THESE RACKS EMPTY?”
“SIR, SIR, SOMEONE STOLE ALL YOUR WINTER JACKETS!”
“THEY ONLY LEFT THE HANGERS!”

Watch a country music video
objectifying women horribly:
“WHAT IS THIS MADNESS?”
“IT’S JUST CUT OFF JEAN SHORTS FLOATING IN MID-AIR?”
“WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?”
“WHEN DID DAVID LYNCH DIRECT A COUNTRY MUSIC VIDEO?”

When the person finally gets the hint
and takes off the camo jacket or whatever
sigh really dramatically and say
“PHEW! YOU WERE JUST WEARING CAMOUFLAGE!”
“YOU’RE NOT INVISIBLE!”
“You’re just an asshole.”

And, y’know
hope they don’t have a gun.
