#537 nothing new in the forecast

there is a dark cloud above me

sunlight all around

the cloud's been above me
for weeks
disguised as years

i've run and driven

stopped and hidden

is the cloud following me?

am i trying for escape?

or am i pursuing the cloud

and all it provides?

the blue horizon

like the cool kids in the cafeteria
offers a view, something to watch

but no sense of belonging

or being invited
