The Hamlet Project

This is a good story, really –
He was just in the grocery store
Like anyone else
Buying some crackers and baby food.
He was wearing sunglasses
Trying not to be seen.
He’d grown his beard out, too
So you could miss him
If you weren’t paying attention
But in my story
I saw him.
I was right there
Behind him in line.
I wanted to shout
“Look who it is! Look look!”
but it’s better as a secret
my own private moment with fame.
