There was a narrow world
There was a narrow world
It had a narrow town
With lots narrow people
Everywhere around
And just down the street there was a narrow steeple
And all were going in this narrow church
To pray to a narrow god

Popcorn
An egg waiting to hatch
For consumption, for a snack
All we wanted and yet more
Popcorn, popcorn, popcorn galore
For a Sunday movie night
Be it funny or to give you a fright
Popcorn now and popcorn then

Blind
Blind
To see the world through closed eyes, nothing and everything all at once
To hear the music of the earth and dance their way through life's perils
To feel the ground beneath their feet as they travel

Routine
Routine
I wake up.
I get dressed.
I drink coffee.
I pack my bag.
I go to school.
I do schoolwork.
I go to practice.
I go home.
I relax.
I go to sleep.

Scaling
I clip my carabiner onto the hoop as I scale it, its icy breath blowing on my face.
I climb on.
I feel like retreating from a daunting task, the sky's disappointed pelting of ice discouraging me.

Forgotten
The forgotten things are here
And the forgotten things are there
All the forgotten things are everywhere
Up and down the street
Just beneath our feet
And floating through the air
Forgotten things do not feel jealousy -

Tomorrow
I don't like to think about the future
For the future feels final.
The future feels like a goal everyone is working towards
That none have arrived at
And none ever will.
