An abstract poem

8 2 3
                                    

Often I gave away advice like a tender

Gift I don't take/give to myself,

Feet ache again after walking

A girl sitting by the food court waiting

Watching, thinking

The feeling of being judge is no new

Feeling it's common as the whispers

Is not so screet

But they don't know you, her, or me,

So let assumptions as​sas​si​nate those

gossips, those opinions, then maybe

a flying, Middle finger post as a bird

Would fall into the palm of said hands,

Red straw in the green grass the green is

ok the red straw is not its a negative

that thinks it belong there,

I should be appreciating the greenery

Around me but the red straw is

unavoidable and cross the

Road from the red straw is three cats

Sitting on the Owners porch,

Looking, oberserving, telling but I can't

See what they seem to see.
