remote cards

They stand in Buchanan St. 20 something’s, boys and girls with their home made signs - Free Hugs! The sun beats down, hotter than its been for an age. The streets filled with people. Some stop and look - sprayed blue letters, long hair, orange t-shirt. Multi coloured letters, wraps her arms round a football fan. She wears a green dress, retro style, short hair and smiling with her folded cardboard. A dad with a brute Mohawk, his son with a penguin balloon - she stands arms spread, waiting, grinning, and waiting. Teen girls, look on and laugh - “imagine giving them away! I’d charge!”
