Stalker
There is indeed a stalker in my dream
He waits among the broccoli
sprouts
Waiting for me to pass as an
ant today
Today I shall be the smallest
ant in the field
I shall carry the pieces of
leaves toward
Pyramids
I shall ride in your collar
and wonder at your
Life
I shall wonder at the cashier,
the driver, the toll
gate worker, so many strangers
You'd think I'd have seen them
all by now
So many like me
Engineer with prints, artist
with canvas, musician with violin of very
old wood,
So many to the slaughter, so
many like me
Walt's wagons is now the semi-trailer
driver
The same staunch strength, he
has not changed
So many like me
The press operator stamps parts
with earplugs in place
His grandfather the blacksmith
is in his hands, in his feet
They are the same among so many
This farmer's son has wide feet
for the plowed earth,
Sits in his cubicle without
the need for wide feet
Writes poems he does, this ant
in your collar
Shreds leaves
Builds pyramids
