Left Behind
in six lanes
of traffic
in the spring of the year
somebody’d lost
their pieces
along the side of the road
there was a shoe
it looked like a good shoe
there was a shirt
it looked white
or maybe it was blue
there were other things, too
but it all went by so fast
colors blurred
only that there were
things
scattered things
left on the side of the road
and it felt like rain
coming down
