City Crowd
I know not where I wander.
Though, I can’t help but wonder
If whatever called me, mysteriously
Is also leading me to my destiny.
People tend to call me optimistic,
Overly, specifically, that is,
I don’t disagree. I see opportunity
With every step, everything I see.
I wonder what these people who pass
Surrounding my left, right, and fourth wall glass
Would think about my journey here,
My destination, to nowhere, yet everywhere.
Most who walk these streets would stress,
Feeling overwhelmed by the crowds, pressed,
Pushed around and seemingly getting further
From their goal. Wound up in a chaotic blur.
I feel the neon signs and the massive crowd
Guiding me towards my goal, clear and loud.
What it is, I don’t know,
But wherever I’m pushed, I will go.
