Branded

Branded

He sees cars barking their

brands in the streets;

oblivious to the noise they

make, the line they draw.

Branded owners stepping

out of branded cars.

He wonders if it hurts to be

completely branded top-to-

toe? He hears the owners of

the branded people carriers

talking about their branding,

proud that they allowed it,

even prouder, louder about

how much it cost them.

 He jumps at the barking bite;

branded, running out of sight.
