Don'T Walk

walk two steps look up see blue hue dotted with odd walk three steps glance left witness sea gloriously barren, fish mutated walk four steps stare right at height lowered spirit’s demise walk five steps in sight of remote view through lens skewed by judge walk six steps hit drop yet fallen strong so grown exhale corrupt walk seven steps slumber boredom seizes stretched limit snap back walk eight steps caught in act convicted sentenced to death in Yemen walk nine steps halt held puppet porcelain shun drive walk one step, crept closer daily so cruel inevitable finale Don’t walk.
