RM writers' prompt V

daily

walk the same path
when there's heat it is dry
step on flowers that smell bad
dry on the same path

day after day
straight ahead
at the end another way
the same thing in my head

the length of a cigarrete
that's all that it takes
at the end i wish to cry
the same path still dry

zigzag around the dirt
i try to avoid the hurt
hurt myself i move ahead
the same thing in my head

* * *
walk the same path
when it rains it is wet
step on flowers that smell bad
wet on the same path

night after night
straight ahead
at the start there's a light
the same thing in my head

the length of a cigarrete
that's all that it takes
at the end where i get
the same path still wet

zigzag to avoid i try
another lonely passer-by
alone myself i move ahead
the same thing in my head
