the journey to chesnut street

i was walking down market street
where my car was parked,
which, upon entering, would taking me to chesnut street.
and as i was crossing to the other side
i spotted two people riding bicycles-
a man and a woman, quite businesslike.
although they were headed in my general direction,
and by that i mean right towards me,
i decided to step out into the street anyway,
causing a very awkward three-second sequence of events,
during which i slowed down and then sped up
while the couple did the same and then went
on either side of me, the woman giving me "that look".
following "that look" came a "whoops" from my mouth
and it makes me chuckle to think about
the possibility of me colliding with the man and woman,
having us all in a heap in the middle of market street.
then the uncomfortable emerging from the pile,
with my hand accidentally brushing his rear,
or any other awkward moment of physical contanct,
in response to which i would say, "whoops."
it just makes me chuckle.
