foggy eyed

i once ran down an escalator going

up

after a foggy-eye'd mistake

to go against the grain in this manner

particularly

i'd just

rather

not

(if you know me you know)

i am still

not sure why i did

moving stairs got-me-to-thinking

i like when we can move ourselves

instead

or at least

want to

i like real cases

no matter how long or wide

you can walk or

stand or

incline or

decline

you can even sit

still

for awhile

less choice to more doings

i was drunk enough to try

no static stairs in sight

so i thought

and with the red pump i made it

somehow

only to my right spotted vacant

peripherals i see the shadow of

a real case

climbing up

or down

in the same way that i came
