pinball king got caught

sometimes no thought
and then it won’t stop
thinking about different
people leading somewhat similar
lives but they wouldn’t know
never would have thought it
classroom buzzing
teenage conversation saturates
the air all around
and he remembers
maybe not as obvious as
the pinball king who got caught
front of the class
then gone
always wondered
then wondering stopped
at the blackthorne
couple nights back
headstands on the floor
like some yogi clown
caught up in the tower alone
but looking down from the porch
everything looks calm…
