Poetry

too many
people
children
dogs
on the heath
too much
noise

i fidget on my walk
to stop my irritation
from exploding into
anger

nothing calming
out here today
the cold the wind
the lateness
of spring

are land mines
in this war zone
of failed days
lost years

too many
thoughts even
it would be nice
just to live
not think nor
question

and i’m one of the lucky ones

am i
