These bags under my eyes weren’t doing me any good,
so I took them to the store to put groceries in them.
The type of store like Save-A-Lot,
where the produce is at times questionable,
but all the dry goods are much more affordable.
I got my items and began to checkout and the cashier asked me,
“Would you like to buy some bags?”
To which I responded, saying, “No, thanks, I’ve got my own.”
The cashier did a double take and eyed me, “Are you doing alright, you look a bit rough?”
I just blinked in irritation and flatly replied with one word, “Insomnia.”
