CARRYING ON AS NORMAL

(RECONSTRUCTION)

During an absence

I safely stashed

I know not what

I know not where

walked for an unknown

period of time

ending right back

where I had begun

Imagine it if you will

The forgotten item

had disappeared
from my grasp
seemingly

without reason

leaving me perplexed

when they demanded

what on earth

I thought 

I was up to

first walking around

ignoring them

then standing

staring at my empty hands

What are you on about?

I asked them

somewhat irritably
