   All of us spend time
   following Desire Lines,
   those beaten paths off
   the main artery:
   informal, collective
   trampings --

   Not quite lost
   Not quite found

   -- we go where our feet
   tell us, take us -- as our
   mind navigates elsewhere,
   refusing all manner of
   plan

   (Desire Lines are those informal walking paths across Commons, cutting into areas the developers/designers never did intend)

      Ah, yes...
      Cowpaths.
      Deer trails.
      Otter slides.
      Smoke.
      A ship's wake.
      The tiny tread
      of bird claws
      in a new snow.
      Memory,
      an inscape,
      the ultimate
      desire line.
      Ah, yes.
