The Strangest, Most Amazing Thing I’ve Seen All Day
Illustration by Alessandro Gottardo
She’s got no clothes on, the woman has, nothing but a pair of galoshes. Galoshes I suppose on account of it’s raining but I can’t imagine for the life of me why she’s got no clothes on. She’s sitting across the aisle from me on the bus, legs crossed I suppose because in spite of everything she’s still a lady, has the face and poise of a lady, sensible like a lady to wear galoshes when it’s raining.
