A Poem

They think I’m always on the hunt

Always on the prowl

But usually I’m just sitting here

Thinking

Pondering in this wilderness I call my brain

Thoughts seeping in

Like rain between cracks

Not all require me to act

I learned more than I needed to today

In a way I’m glad

Glad I avoided this path for so long

Right or wrong

Time will only tell

But its vanishing once more

Time to lose the spell of this strange smell
