The Backward Walker Poem by Nick krakana

I walked through a storm today


Just so I could walk the other way

And seeing things differently 
as I did


I realized 
that time rolls by at a different beat

When you walk backwards down the street


People stop and stare



Whisper to……

thinking weird thoughts of you

Who they say walks this way


Tiz I when the wind

Blows cold and strong against my way



They scratch their heads 

And look away

Cause they see no beauty

In a different way.
