O stranger in the orange lamplight

Brown brick closing in,

Neither face nor tail to indicate

The endless walk away or forwards

Back to front to side to side

Molasses steps echoing

As if this were a dream or a nightmare.

Do you ever see a figure far away, and you're not sure which direction they're facing or where they're going? The night, too, makes it hard to figure out if they are walking at all.
