Step to it

I don't mind walking,
if there is enough time  
I would much prefer to take the scenic route,
although with this nose
I will hardly be able to smell the roses,
there are more efficient modes of travel
but what good are a pair of legs
if you do not stretch them
once in a while?
I say walk,
but in reality
its more of a quick skittering
mixed with a purposeful march
out from some subsection
of the ministry of funny walks.
See I don't mind walking
but I do mind waiting
or even worse, being late,
and a good playlist
makes wonder for mobilization:
a quick beat to make those feet
just eat up the street,
oblivious to the jangling sound of keys
as I go onwards
to somewhere.
