The Beat of the Cart

Pushing a cart To the beat Moving gingerly Down the street A squeak here A rattle there If they stare You don't care Destination's On your mind It's in front of you Not behind A few steps more You declare You'll take Your shoes off Lie down On the ground And breathe The fresh air The cart Is your home You know You're not alone You hear the sound The Beat of the Cart Is all around 03/27/12 D.C.
