Traveling Man

Traveling Man

A Poem by jacob erin-cilberto

Traveling Man

 

your vivid skin

and composure

slap at my sensibility

 

I could love you in seconds

if I had a stopwatch to count

instead of a stop-sign heart

 

that tells me to run it

and then accelerate

into the future

 

just me,

and my St. Christopher's medal.

Traveling on Horseback would be my Style where we could Trot along side by side until our Saddles slipped off… Pat
