Walk with me, if you wish; need not be far;
could catch a bus, take the tour, don’t have a car.
If you are young like me, could travel for free;
the orbiter goes around the outer suburbs of the city.
Tend to be solitary these days, a matter of choice;
apart from occasional thespian visits to hear them give voice
to the subject matter of the time. Practice social skills,
dress in appropriate attire, experience the thrill
of being part of or party to an act creative;
to be aware of being aware of being naive -
to allow ourselves to examine or dream
aspects of being human that might otherwise be extreme.
Gods of the arena? Far too bloody,
the kind of history we did not study.
Creativity is powerful, like a drug;
the hole is deep, that we have dug.
No, I’m not complaining. Why should I?
Walk with me, talk with me; don’t need to try
to be witty or wise. Share a moment, no fuss.
Did I mention, we could take a bus?
