Walking






Stay where your feet are
she said
beginning a passionate race 
through days and weeks to next year.

Already out of breath
no knowledge of 
who or what holds her future.

Only knowing
she must be prepared
for joys, gaps or crushing blows
and then she remembered ~
she had yet to tie her shoes.

“Between saying and doing, many a pair of shoes is worn out.”
~ Iris Murdoch
