Ive Worn No Cape

I’ve Worn No Cape By: Miracle Man 11/19/2018 Now that coziness is gone, I view my past as a changing story filled with memories. Most have the lifespan of a shared kiss From a face I no longer recognize. Others became a memory that’s flown from existence; I can’t enumerate the sidewalk cracks I’ve stepped over That caused stumble but nary a fall. I’ve allowed words to betray my thoughts, For once spoken they became whispers in the breeze, Blowing like crumpled paper Before coming to rest in winters dead grass.
