Day 16: Just a little bit lost

While riding my bike to the barbershop,
the bank, the liquor store, and home
on an otherwise ordinary Saturday,
a fellow cyclist but more serious than me,
judging by the shoes, the shorts, and the shirt,
asked me for directions to the bike trail turnoff
up Schrock Road and north through Westerville.
Miles later, a father and son in an SUV,
probably looking for South High School,
asked me for directions to Otterbein Street.
I think you might be mistaking me for
someone who knows his way around.
