Walking in a line

I

walk

in a 

line

between the guys

the preppies

the in-betweens

when brought into anything

I will

high five smile

playful banter

whatever

I'm outgoing

I'll go out

to make you like me

but not over-the-top

if you don't

I don't

I'm walking in a line

not quite someone

the guys can hang with

                                           -but they joke tease talk to me-

the preppies can gossip to 

                                                 -because I don't like them and they're mean-

the in-betweens can confide in

                                                          -unless they're my friends-

kind of all over the place

all up in down

this line is not linearughlinear

it's wiggly

squiggly

ups and downs and round and round and round.

    Air

     

    circulates

     

    around

     

    us

     

    breathing together

    =

    starting together

    playing the same scale altogether

    with people you don't know

  • Tunnel

    We went on a hike 

    because I was music-ed out

    walking in the cold all bundled up

    jackets, borrowed gloves

    sneakers

    crunching through the icy wet

    snow-steeped landscape
