Kaleidoscope


Last night,
I went inside 
a mini mart 
by a gas station.
It smelled 
just like 
the minimart 
in the States. 

The mixture of 
cardboard, 
candy bars,
and plastic packages,
dust.
 
I guess 
I have been missing 
the States
more than I thought.


Many things 
I do, I see, and I hear
are
starting to be
my 
'one last time.'

...but then,
the truth is,

whether 
I walk the same street 
over and over 
every single day,
and say 
that is going to 
continue 
for the next 10 years,

each single time 
I walk 
on that same street 
is, in fact my

one last time.



leaving one place 
lets 
me realize 
that 
every day is
just like

a kaleidoscope.
