The Limp
SuspecTed

That's why God made one of these,
legs longer than the other,

To make sure I can only walk in circles.

This world is made of squares,

So I'm forced to limp.

In order,
to make it 'round these corners.

I couldn't decid if I should shorten,
one or lengthen the other,

Which one was mocking me?

I put away the saw,
I curbed the problem.

Rather, the curb was the solution,

my feet, now home,

to the sidewalk and gutter simultaneously.

The only time I trip is when I come to the crosswalks.
Which, is every block.

So I wish the curb and street were level,
so I could just walk around in circles,

in this world made of squares.
