A portrait of pause,
he is, on a pavement.
A disparate soul,
amid a diverse parade.
Soft touch of breeze
gently bobs balloons.
Colorful tangles,
his twisted pride.
Unfocused and wide,
he stares into blank.
A swirling vortex,
his mind skates through.
Honoring his reverie,
the crowd hurries away;
Dropping those clues,
he’s trying to embrace.
