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
