I'm going for a walk
It's Saturday,
and I'm going for a walk
to find cigarettes and, shoe strings
I left the door open
It was cracked and so was my heart
I stood on the corner watching the cars pass by
I got there just as the bus arrived
The sidewalk had cracks on it
and I'm going for a walk
to find cigarettes and, shoe strings
I left the door open
It was cracked and so was my heart
I stood on the corner watching the cars pass by
I got there just as the bus arrived
The sidewalk had cracks on it

There is nothing pathetic [your word, not mine] about your life If you see yourself within a living poem. The madness of poets and poetesses.

Pathetic is just a state of mind. It doesn't really exist.
Actually, I love the poem. It's crisp, it's evocative, it's poignant, it sets a scene, perfectly placed in its interjection of action taking place (the cars passing, the bus arriving)
The line about, The door is cracked (0pen) and so is your heart (cracked) ? You have a genius for the work.
