“Observation"
If I don't drive around the park,
I'm pretty sure to make my mark.

But I shall stay the way I am,
Because I do not give a damn.”

He took her hand; she drew it back instinctively and then replaced it in his. 'Beg your pardon. Not even used to being touched. But I'm not afraid of you, if you stay quiet and don't move suddenly.”
