Another ReasonA Poem by Rachel Landes
Man
Was the man I saw today You But if I am not me Than you are not you So I can't have seen you Out (right there) It wasn't right To have you sitting on a bench As the taxi drifted past And the googly eyes float by And the shiny shining faces Stare as I pass by Are you sleeping sleepy Go to sleep And wake up another day In another world My stitches are not supposed to Get wet Or be torn off And you are not supposed to see me Or start to stare at the spaces You must keep walking Nowhere Back to Nowhere Land I feel more at home in the hospital At least there Everything Is white At least there I do not need to know the time
