HOP (Rough Draft)

1. Start at 8 o’clock.

2. Start at center.

3. Walk in dirt.

There is mud in my shoes. Well more so there is mud on the bottom of my shoe making it caked. I’ll slip. I’ll fracture one of ankles, again.

4. Perhaps go through a couple of bushes.

There are no thorns.

5. Hop a small stonewall.

6. Look through office windows.

There are foreheads still working. It’s almost 9 o’clock.

7. Trailblaze.

8. Get caught in roots.

9. Stair climb up.

Wait. Wait your turn.

10. Stair climb down.

11. Hop a small stonewall.

12. Rock Spot.

I was dumped here. Around here. Kind of over there, by that bench.

13. More earth, but someone put this dirt here intentionally.

14. Walk into some building with hanging portraits.

15. Walk to my death.

16. Hop a small stonewall.
