The day it went sideways
I can’t remember the first day
I started to go sideways
But I seem to remember
I was walking down the sidewalk
Thinking about the cracks
In the concrete
Spiderwebbing out in front of me
And then somehow
mid-thought
It all started to turn
A solid 90 degrees.
I’ve been walking on edges of buildings
And trees
Across parked car doors
And people’s faces and torsos
Jumping over windows and exit signs
Ever since.
