Calmly watching
the noisy rushing
about
nothing and everything
to be done
Humans on trains, on buses
on phones
Noisy rushing
Calmly watching

Wondering if it is contagious

Going back over
the walls where once sleeping then awake
bursts of creative
thoughts and words displayed
photographs, doodles and words of backwards
wisdom
Empty walls
Removing paper and tape residue
Patching holes
Smiling as I go
Going back….smiling
Moving ahead…smiling

Time to paint the walls
