My life is not so grand right now.
however
It is ripe
with
near fits
and reeks
of near misses.
But nothing is coming close enough to
stick...
I am sitting on the corner,
watching my dreams catch updrafts
towards the bus cables
like a pink plastic bag from china town.
Some get
snagged
temporarily stopping a bus
- I think of getting on, but don't.
Some just vanish
like rice paper in the rain.
Others plummet
to the gutter
oozing
into the sewer
I am still on the corner
Watching the time pass like the busses
- 22, 30, 30 Express, 41, 45......
and I am beginning to think it is about time
I start walking,
instead of waiting.
I might get somewhere that way
Day 6 of 31
Beautiful... And yes waiting will not let u reach anywhere... Life gives answers only when we keep walking
