Foibles
By this sidewalk cafe,
Busy feet converge and clash;
Footsteps soon move away,
Watch easy movements dash.
The demands of day hurl,
A shifting, sultry world,
Events that notions swirl,
I mind my steps through twirls.
Mad foibles now impact,
The sudden mark of tact,
Risk wears a solemn pact,
Look deeper to sure act.
No need to scream or shout,
The pace of space speaks out,
Zoom-in a roundabout,
Sense truth in proof not doubt.
