Suppose you go
tell that man in the red Toyota
who is driving
around the neighborhood
jumping out
and handing a quarter
to each person he sees
telling them with huge grins
that it is for good luck and good news
in the coming new year

Suppose you Decide
that it falls to you
to decide
that he’s nuts

You pull your kids aside
and pull out the trusty cellphone
to call the police

I bet that 
even if you do all that

you keep the quarter
