Nowhere In Particular

Nowhere in Particular
David J Walker


Is it enough that 
we once
shared the same sky 
that we walked the
same streets and
greeted the same citizens
aimlessly passing by

is it enough that I have
cataloged and stored each
yesterday in a frame
of mind 
easy to find 
although 
every page is dogeared and
smeared with the stains
of years gone by

is it enough to have 
woken up
next to each other 
wondering where 
this was going 
knowing 
it was going nowhere 
in particular
