PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

to those who pass you by on the street and take

no heed

nor notice the individual directly in front of them

unless their immediate pathway they somehow

happen to impede

the 'Trodden Takers' as I like to label them

recognize not a single other soul upon the busy

city streets

and always the face of a complete stranger he encounters

is all he stares through when each he unwillingly meets

the possible future friend behind the well lit eyes he will

never give himself the chance to even remotely get

to know

just whom he is passing up as he none to observantly

strolls right by

the friction and the fear of the physical body inhabits

the mind and spirit in extreme versions of one's natural flow

men and women alike are guilty of such

insensitivity when faced though with interaction and morality

in reference to the feeling's of the next guy...........
