Escapism

a far walk to where I have nothing to do

out of body words take no notice of me

I could be industrious or in love

thought I go too far to walk it all back

Erasure poem derived from The Diary of Samuel Pepys, Monday 18 January 1669.

Dave Bonta

Learn by heart: tap a gap

a far walk to
I have to do
