Traipse your method out in direction of Cumberland Avenue.

Carry your passport and a family receipt.

The type employees are there to help and abet.

You may discover that face tough to recognise.

That’s how pennies crumble — how cookies drop.

You’d sip good espresso they serve in Fitzgerald’s.

Sweat out of your forehead whets the stone in your shoe.

What do your ft weigh? A ton of feathers.

How lengthy did you stroll? Until the seals got here residence.

Did the solar nuzzle you? Sure, like a wolf.
