6708 cahill (winterstreet). by Andrew S Adamsout the window, a breathfogged
masterpiece of tic-tac-toe boards,
i notice the peculiarity of the occasional
headlight passing down this road;
i feel compelled to take off.
to fly, without wings or mind.
just senseless, careless whimsy.
just myself, my socks, the snow and the street.
what a dog i am, chasing the tail lights off into the distance.
next time, i'll retrieve my shoes. 12/14/2003 Author's Note: published in the 2004 issue of edina high school's "images" magazine.
