Shop windows fly by,
in opposite directions.
Friends pull me
in opposite directions.
They and their moms loudly
discus opposite directions.
Food is sold
in the opposite direction.
My feet and eyes want to take me
in opposite directions.
Everyone is rushing
in opposite directions.
Clothes explode and land
in opposite directions.
I just might flee
in the opposite direction.

This was written after my wonderful shopping trip with two of my best friends. I'm not kidding, it really was great :)
