TrunkFence/CrimeWatch/Strut


Even the manniquins are hit with the hot sun.
Even when the store is closed, they need to strut.

It first stuck me that suspicious persons has a double meaning.
Then how someone(s) messed up this sign.
One hostile act followed by another?

My wife thinks I'm slow because I haven't gotten
the idea yet that things change.
From a tree to a fence to ashes.
Here, one state accommodates another,
all decorated with jewels of light from the hot sun.
