i like to keep my Head down
i don't Meet passerby Gaze
i don't Get a Fake hello
a Bro-ish head Nod
a Shy recoil
Judgement aplenty with Sadness under every look
fabricated Impressions are easier to swallow
rubber Soles don't remind me of what i will Never
Understand
...
muffled toe cacophonies Deposit the ever changing calligraphy of what is
Strides can't lie
my Phone can't lie
while in step i need a Reason to Leave the plane of contact
i Take my phone Apart constantly
Stretching the phone case on and off
to let the Truth or Simplicity of the machine out
then to Quickly Encase it again so that maybe it can relate to me
have u ever seen someone take their shoes on and off Again
Again
Again in a tick
its the same thing
Shedding
Putting on
Clothing
something Ultimately Transient
a Sea of unseen feet making unseen Footprints on unseen soil
it's the Eyes that Lack cushion
i Invest in the Journey
Appreciate the ground covered
Heads Meet Fake Bro-ish shy sadness
Judgement Impressioning Soles to Never Understand the Deposit of Strides
Phones give Reasons to Take Apart the Stretching Truth
Quickly looking for Simplicity Encased AgainAgainAgain
while Shedding then Putting on Clothing
Ultimately only Transient Footprints in a Sea Eyes
Investing in what the Group Lacks
Journey to Appreciate
