Abandoning the Abandoned

by Katie   Jan 29, 2006


Have you ever seen concrete float?
Have you ever seen a solid rock drift?
Have you ever seen the backs
of everyone in the distance?
turning away
without looking back
to see your face
just watching
just seeing
your concrete support
your solid rock
float
drift
turn away

Or is it you?

floating
drifting
turning away
without looking back
to see all the faces
looking at you
just watching
just seeing
their concrete support
their solid rock
float
drift
turn away
