This is what you should know.
You step one foot in front of the other,
down a sidewalk, grass on either side,
buildings knocking against the sky.
It's all around you.
People walk by, whole worlds in their heads.
His is two triangles. Yellow and green.
Hers is placid dark and a silver dip in the distance.
They walk the same sidewalks.
Her shoe size is the same as yours.
He ate a banana for breakfast, you ate a banana muffin.
He is thinking about calculus.
And so are you, really.
