Wayfaring
from place to place,
gathering stuff
from here and there,
discarding some
on the wayside,
my backpack
is loaded, heavy
and stretching
at its seams,
my journey begins
as I pick it up
and stops over
as I put it down,
the road speeds on
slipping off my feet
as I tote around
my belongings
from one place
to another
and yet another
until my bag
flops flat, deflated
…and empty.
