Happily walking my life away;
Steps performed at the speed of
An ordinary human, dragging this
Lasting but ever-changing body
To entertain or survive
Slower than the laziest wheels;
Shaving some of the seemingly
Endlessness, relishing in whatever
Perspectives determined to come by

There are many ways you can travel to most locations you need to go, and there's only one almost universal: walking.
Even though that's an intriguing idea, it doesn't influence my love for the transportation method much.
Frankly, I struggle to understand why I love it so much -- I'm Dutch, so maybe it's because biking is just too prevalent, making walking another way to feel unique.
My parents think I'm crazy. They also think it's weird that I don't repair my bike or get a driver's license. But I'm content with walking -- toward public transit if necessary.
Walking seems to suit me. I don't move or go outside enough, or rather, I wouldn't if it weren't for walking. There's also so much time in our lives, and a lot of it we waste on dopamine machines; walking is an alright alternative to that.
And finally (and this is a secret), it's how I find all the ideas for my art. I'm not sure who leaves them there, but throughout the city (and surrounding area), someone ditches all these great, free ideas I pick up, which nobody else ever seems to. Maybe they're all too busy to look around.
