never want to see, happy to not start, averted glances,
eyes down, head down, no stolen looks, no twinkles in the
eye, nothing, keep the head down, keep the eyes on the
floor, there is nothing to see here, nothing, move along,
it is fear, fear alone, heavy, like black, anchors the
eyes to a point to furniture, to a painting in a room,
a place to rest in an otherwise too hectic life, but
there it goes, missed chances and opportunities, because,
because, a misstep, a wrong direction, and it takes
time to get back on track, it takes time to find that
path again, it takes time to understand, there's ain't
no GPS, there ain't no mapquest where i'm going, to
where i was, atlas no question, travel shows no help,
it is a journey of one, ticket please
