2/9/2003

I
hook my arm
around the elusive
as
she slips by
but
cannot hold on
don’t know
what
made me try.
Putting my ear
to the ground
I hear her
quick
light steps
as she
runs circles
around me
staying
close enough
for me to guess
she isn’t
going anywhere.
I
sit down
make myself at home
humming a tune
that satisfies my need
for music
while I wait.
