The Rock
As I walk along the skinny,
raggedy sidewalk
a rock with a peculiar shape
comes into my attention
shaped liked a spear on an arrow
the slate, shaved off from the front
was a solid charcoal gray
I can't help but think
how did it end up here?
is it an ancient arrowhead
used by native americans?
all that can be told now is it
is just a rock
utterly bereft
alone on this skinny,
raggedy sidewalk
