Composed 9/29/16
Description: It’s been awhile, but the words still jump out at me, especially now that autumn calls!
When cigarette and coffee smoke
Are dancing in the air
When schools of people swarm around
Like you’re not even there
When police patrols and flashing lights
Set hearts a-pounding, scared
When hot asphalt, manicured grass
The cool breeze makes aware
It’s then you pull your jacket tight
Walk like a queen and dare
It’s like something could happen
And even if it never does
You still have now begun the dream
And you still feel it
There
On your skin
