(SKIPPING DOWN) NARROW PASSAGE
|
Nearness of walls heightens hysteria
Alley graffitied with hopscotch chalking Running scared/ unfamiliar area Realizing 'you are gone' is shocking Once skipped with hearts and hands interlocking We played hopscotch/ we enjoyed the skipping Partially awake, and yet sleepwalking Abandoned, exterior paint chipping Soaked by tear-flood, lack of weatherstripping Still I skip onward, as-straight-as-a-crow Almost losing my balance and tripping Going fast-forward, now playing solo Expecting to exit- grande finale Skipping away/ unfamiliar alley |
