Pedestrian

shoot me quick I hate James Dean
he’s six feet under, I’m six feet over
and Marilyn Monroe lovers
unite to slow down the world
you walk and you walk

hey that’s your escalator from the basement
to the ground floor
but it’s a real short high-rise
social suicide
you walk and you walk

buildings are sundials
patrons-in-waiting
along this light road
I was pushed
concrete root systems
