Leaf

This leaf is dancing round in circles
Like its rushing to catch some cosmic meeting
To which it was invited long ago

I wonder what they'll talk about
I wonder if it's meaningful
This knowledge that all leaves have yet to know

My boots are sliding down the pavement like their trekking to some known destination
Perhaps a certain ground of cobbled stone
I wonder what it's all about
I wonder if it's beautiful
This ground on which all boots have yet to go

My mind is like a cave
With swindlers as prisoners
And urged to entertain
I show my guests some visions

My toes are curling back so fiercely like they're reaching to touch a body
And capture all the pleasure it enthrals
I wonder if it's bad for me or if it's just a part of me
This poison I so frequently endure

My care is dangerously fading like a clay vase on the edge of me
Dying in the midst of a fall
I wonder what it's done to me
To lose my sense of empathy
I wonder if I ever cared at all

My mind is like a cave
With swindlers as prisoners
And urged to entertain
I show my guests some visions
