Scarfed wrapped and
bundled
Harried and hurried
Suited, they scurry
from work
Faster than their
souls
Can keep pace
Charity clad and
layered
They ambled and
dissembled
Waiting for locked
doorways to claim
Souls wilted
Beneath the weight of
life
They sauntered
In perfumed modish
chic
Blatant lustful gaze
Hopeful souls
Lusts longing to meet
Harried hopes
Wilted dreams
And lustful longings
Debris of daily life
Swept down an empty
street
A lonely blinking
light
Don’t walk
Wilted hopes,
harried dreams and
longings heat
Are stopped
mid-stride
