Aglow with Their Ignorance

There’s never enough time
to get your brain quite in shape
for the ruckus you think you’ll be making,

but isn’t that the beauty of a weekend
in the city, full of tourists
and misinformed pedestrians?

You see them wander, aglow
with their ignorance
of the proper rules of the road.

But they’re having fun,
and that’s all they can do
with their addled brains
in the hot Summer sun.

Wharved.com I am a poet. I write poems. Titles and subjects and subsequent readership are all part of one fragmented figment of our universe, and it's nice that we take it so seriously. Hopefully the craft remains and grows stronger for our children. View all posts by Aidan Badinger
