Stopped At Forget
stopped at forget
it's a very strange thing indeed
when walking at a normal speed
your eyes set on circumspect,
brain bent on way to target
then suddenly, that metronome
that ambulatory twilight zone
of thoughtless walk
begins to balk-
left, then right- then left again
how goes, again...?
a sudden ruckus of red- sirens pound passed!
a fire- somewhere ahead! outta the way, fast!
it's a very strange thing indeed
when remembering at a normal speed
to suddenly stop, at forget
and blatantly miss your recollect
