A sidewalk
People walking all over me
Spitting when I'm down.
I am:
Like a rat
People trying to shoe me away.
Trying to trap me in a corner
Leave me there to die.
I am:
A piece of dust
Flying around, landing on something
Then getting brushed away or swept
Away and trapped in an unknown world.
I am:
A box sitting in storage
Waiting to be unpacked
And put in a new home.
D.P.
