People Watching And Eavesdropping

Chilling
just people watching
I hear some dude behind me say
"I'm gonna go scare up some food"
yikes,
I turn to see the guy who has caused
me to have visuals of bunnies huddling
in bushes and a deer so scared
all of its knees are knocking together

my eyes meet his
I wish I never turned around
he/it was hideous
tall, slightly chubby with thick wrinkles
all over his face
and a cleft lip that was never repaired
he just leered at me and I turned around slowly
but quickly if that makes sense
I didn't want to be the food he was gonna scare up

yeah that was it
just a sentence and mind wont stop mulling it over
what kind of person scares up food?
the term bugs me,
scaring up food sounds like a hillbilly
wearing a dead pigs face, running amok
killing campers just to eat their pork-n-beans,
not a guy who just wants a sandwich.......
