Mapmaker

too wrapped-up
unbalanced and such
in a world not much room for else
in between

cutting
the grid
don't circle those perfect angles majesty
mapping the lines and the streets

lose focus
concentration-dim
give me some time to memorize my lines
that i can read

cutting
the grid
don't circle those perfect angles majesty
mapping the lines and the streets

mapmaker
cut down to size
tracing trees in a shallow sky
"mr. story
where are you headed?"
