Was It Possible

Cardboard sign abandoned in the highway weeds.
The boutique shops are For Sale
(My secrets are)
Woman with rustic cane
Man with bone-like arm
Cradled in its sling.
Striped shoelaces tangle on the crosswalk.
I bite down
On oxygen molecules
Hoping we’ll have lunch today
Because by far the most interesting
Thing today has been watching
My laptop wake up, sleep, wake up—
Just to prove it really was possible.
