PERIPHERAL VISION

If you ever decide to quit
looking beyond the asphalt
buck-stitched by barb wire,

if you can’t see either side
to your current destination
since you were a kid,

if your everyday is
planned and paced
to the drum of a clock,

you may not notice them
moving quickly to hide
just behind your ear.

Terrific work! This is the type of information that should be shared around the web. Shame on the search engines for not positioning this post higher!
