A Child in Boston
When the world turns, are we turning with it?
Or are you standing there
like you did last week
in the middle of a crowd
while it flowed (hurried) around you?
I turned for a second, and my heart
it stopped
in fear and in love
for the question unbidden from my lips
"what are you doing"
