I Should Go Out Into The Sun

I should go out into the sun
And walk in the direction of wherever I need to go
No matter how far-
And on the way find some other form of transportation
That will take me there.

Instead however I sit here and write my inane lines
As if whatever happened to me however small
Was worth thinking about by another-

A poem should not be trivial
But mine often are-

How much more patience will I myself have
Before I go in another direction?
