Life is Boundary

Lines form and people follow the flow

separating into groups on the sidewalk.

Mannered in institution,

he, she, they.

Blur into one moving mass of color.

Then one yellow dot runs from formation,

chased by its larger who returns it to

the spot in symmetry.

Comformity, assimilation, and boundaries.

We file ourselves in order from the time our feet

bare weight, until our weight we cannot bare.

Then we seal our deaths in set form, row upon row,

marking our existence in uniformity.
