    Waiting for the boot to drop

    Weird sense of peace
    They're getting along
    Looking up; waiting for the boot to drop!
    Car's running fine
    Money in the bank
    Looking at the clouds; when is the boot going to drop?

    I don't see cleats or rubber soles
    I know it's somewhere
    If I catch it falling I can move
    So I'm not under it when it drops!

    I got a B
    The computers still going
    That hacker hasn't been seen in a month
    Still waiting for the boot to drop
    Over the horizon I see a man
    Maybe thats where its hiding
    The last one was a prize
    He must've been the boot itself

    Maybe its invisible footwear
    Clear to let the sun shine thru
    With a left one falling behind
    Big and spiked and round and hard
    To crush the good beneath it!

    I'd say it's a shoe
    But, my, it's me
    Nothing in my life happens small
    Somewhere close in the Great Beyond
    There's a boot with my name on it,
    Waiting to drop!

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
