'BELONG'

Walked along the roads,
Ones you had shown.
Whisked along the shores,
Ones you had soaked.

Seethed in whines,
Yours and mine.
Even circled some shrines,
Trusting and trying.

Many worlds and
Their masters I watched.
Many sapient and
Their notes I scratched.

Hostility, piety I
Seek and desired
Within, without I
Embellished, quivered.

Like a nomad so
Wasteful, so lavish.
Fleeced seams and
Devoid treasures.

Along this voyage,
Of times and age,
Of grime and dirt,
Of wilt and search.

Have I not
Come a long trail?
Yet, all I
Feel is a droll.

To you and
Those all around.
I squirm, I plonk.
‘Just don’t belong!’
