And other salutary walks

You don’t have to say it.
I know it: everybody lies.
Just get ready.
Bathe your body thoroughly.
Choose the colours that you want.
The nail varnish.
And don’t worry any longer:
What place?
What time?
It is being filmed.
In the main city square.
In the hellishly strong sun.
Don’t you know you are inflammable?
At any moment.
I’ll be watching.
I’ll lie to you.
Until the day I die.
