Poem: So I Walk

I saunter

because I have nothing

more important

like a horse must trot

a bee must make honey

a dog must p

So I meander -

I have no destination

in my mind

like a leaf must fall

a baby must cry

a star must blink

So I promenade -

I have all the time

in the world

like a dream must wake

a tear must dry

a promise must break

I use my feet

to draw a line

between now and

the past

nothing else -

So I walk
