Guide to Nowhere

[Jeffrey McDaniel]

I wear a patch
over my right eye.
Not because
it's damaged.
I'm saving the eye
for a rainy day,
saving it from
all this crap.
One day I'll
go to the desert,
and I'll switch
the patch to my
left eye. And
I'll only look
at cacti, and
butterflies, and
jackrabbits, but
never in the mirror
and never at
the sky, and like
this I'll train
myself to see
the difference
between what's real
and manmade.
