Any Reasonable Man

A man in a suit
stepped out of his
car, his white sport
utility car, closed 
the door and locked
it. Beep. No tie. He
was parked on the 
street to pick up
his daughter from
third grade. Today
was a yellow letter
day in tell-off 
management. 
Colleagues, bosses,
underlings responded
as any reasonable man
might wish. The 
man in a suit
buttoned his jacket 
against this once-
cold three o'clock.
