Going Everywhere

1.

In the museum, square
short, you move slowly
from painting to painting.

2.

You hardly pause:
in an almost rapidly
eating gesture, like
a huge bag of popcorn.

3.

You fill the air of
amazement with laughter,
like the poster-smiler
who sits down and waits.

4.

You have memorized the
moment, almost like you
know when to stop.  I
need to stop, too, because
you may even pick up something
handy, like a page of note paper.

5.

And then suddenly surprisingly I
find you again smiling with your
knee sore and glaring into the bright.
