Places to Go


Some folks go to the office, some go
to the studio. Factory workers clock
in and go to their station. Conductors

and engineers board their train. Pilots
and captains head for the cockpit or
wheelhouse. Milkmen and trash col-

lectors have their routes to drive.
Birds and squirrels head for the nest.
Mice scurry for any cover they can

find. I’m secure behind closed doors
in my apartment writing these lines
where no one sees me. Occasionally,

I pop up to post a poem or two and a
few photos on Facebook. Three Likes
today, four yesterday. Appears to me

at the end or beginning of day both
man and beast alike have found a
decent and safe place to hide.
