signal pasture
Airborne gate sealing me
all this time, opened up
for business
to attend to
blades between
old trainers fabric
that may as well pierce
my skin and socks
beyond repair.
I can mimic the face
of disinterested dog walkers
with dreams
written all over,
never under on the green
not like me. Why else
would i be spending
time wisely wasting
away benches while
still firmly clocked in
but locked out
while cloaked in todays
sun and smoke.
I can laugh at the
childlike “are we
there yet?” and never
consider impatience
an impossible companion
At what point am i
supposed to feel the benefits
scientifically proven
and recommend for my peers?
Why bother
to get acquainted
with the daylight
and its customers?
Oh man, i cant wait
to get my hands on
the freak who said
such a nonsense
There’s whole
worlds out there,
but to me the universe
is four streets
up and across
the road is the supposedly
necessary recreation of man
So why can’t i wait
for my feet
to hit the pavement
on such a lovely day?
steady temple
woeful basin
wraith onyx
jagged inlet
