Digress
May 22, 2013
Sometimes I wish could digress
From a class
A crowded hallway
A person
I would turn into the slow words of lips
And digress from the topic
The masses of people, The boring lecture
I would digress
I would move away
like the scattered words in my mind
Who like to disappear,
always when I need them
Just for a moment, an hour a day
I would digress from the subject:
Moving lights, hurried people
Due dates, homework, projects, tests
Just for a moment, I would slip away
Close my eyes, steady breath
Like the forgotten point of a subject
I would digress
