Two Feet

Hey everyone,

I know, it's been FOREVER since I last updated this blog and I do apologize for being so inconsistent.

But again, thank you all who have and are still reading all my posts! Have a wonderful weekend!!




Two feet


All I see are
two feet sticking
out of the black bag.

I never see the
face. Only the feet
sticking out
of the black bag.

Whenever I see
a black bag, with only
two feet dangling out,
I see one less
face.

I saw a black bag
last year. There was
an old beggar woman who
always grabbed
my feet. I wish
I gave her more.

I saw a black bag
last month. There was
a man with a stomach over
his feet who sold
pomegranates. I wish
I could pick out
the seeds between my teeth
once more.

I saw a black bag
last week. There was
a hospital guard who
used to give me
sesame seed bars. I wish
I asked him where
he bought them.

I saw a black bag
yesterday. There was
a kid who used to bang on
my door and run away
every morning. I was
late to school
that day.

All I see are
two feet sticking
out of the black bag.

I wonder to whom
those two feet belong,
whose face I will never
see again after
today.
