The Art of Slow Walking
In a sea of molasses
Or wearing over-sized rain boots in the puddles out front
Forgetting that the boardwalk ends and turns to sand
My room as I’m doing an art project
Or in a space suit on Jupiter
When you’re feet are in your six-foot friend’s shoes
My dog lying on the floor, then moving so he’s in your way again
That moment when you’re at the end of a race
But mainly when you want a midnight snack
And the creakiest floorboards are right next to your parent’s room
