Wandering AboutA Poem by Patrick McCombs
The cool air
The sun's glare I trace the bumps on my skin I wonder where to begin I walk down the path I probably need a bath I avoid peoples gazes I navigate my own personal mazes I stumble into a convince store My bare feet cold on the tile floor No one says anything There's a song on the radio, I sing I find that one type of chips I will actually eat I buy them and I'm out on the street I find myself listening to the sea Siting with eyes closed underneath the big oak tree I think as the cool sea breeze cuts through my coat I hear the long loud horn of a nearby boat I sit there for a long time, then my phone rings Annoyed by the sense of reality it brings Though I still pick up the phone And realize my mom wants me home © 2013 Patrick McCombs |
