At the Bookstore

Book in hand
at the bookstore,
I was arrested
by a fierce scent passing
behind me,
blast of hardness
warning: 
"Aggression unto death." 

I turned. 
The face --
found. 
Across the invisible
diagonal line between us,
I noted: 
Chiseled,
expressionless,
hard as rocks. 
I switched
aisles. 
Still, I wonder.
