Walking with Purpose

Walking with Purpose

times of boredom...
I've found myself..
wandering aimlessly..
when maybe I should walk
with purpose.
Walking..
with purpose is
an action I've
yet to master.
Walking with purpose
only seems warranted..
in a measured race.
I do not want..
in that case..
to walk with purpose..
I choose to kick purpose
to the kerb.
and adopt the scenic route .
taking in tourist spots,
and points of interest..
on the way,
stopping for refreshments
at will,
and a little nap..
( but Pauline you are at work)
shit..!I did it on purpose.

That was in Brighton last year watching the Freddy Mercury film at the cinema...I didnt realise ' walking with purpose' is a dementia term, and religous connotation....till now..yes chill out time...then I get bored...cant win..lol..thanks Greg.

Yeah I can agree completly with the contrast of being busy and being bored, hmmm perhaps some inspiration for a future write...... But anyway, I just wanted to say that I really enjoyed this poem as well Pauline, seemed to resonate with me a lot. All the Best. The Fish of the Sea.
