A random thought

The currents of the street flow around her. Most don't even see her. Some look at her chest or her legs. Few look at her face. No one meets her eyes. She walks at a steady pace, her stride like a pendulum. The people passing seem to take little pieces of her away, like a stream of hot water sloughing off the soap and dirt, as if she would disappear eventually, lost to the streets.
