now I wish I’d gone even more pedestrian
photo-flash of morning lightning
their “no, you go” at intersections
my jaywalking on diagonals
hopscotching twigs and worms
movie-set rain (wind through wet trees)
black folding chair facing frat house
gas leak? pervasive petrichor again
ROAD CLOSED sign that lies
instead of always wandering around looking for
the sound behind the sound
the taste behind the taste
the touch under the touch
the sight beyond the vision
the smell beyond the scent
the glow beyond the hill
the face beyond the crescent
the bend beyond the break
jaywalking diagonals – we live dangerously!
I, too, was hoping to add a bit of witticism about this :)-
