Ambulans Solus Obscuro

I wrote this partly because people asked me to write a poem and I didn't want to give them one I'd already written for a different purpose. It's a true story, although a bit overstated for dramatic purposes. I was a little careless with the meter, but most poetry these days is blank verse, so I can't feel too bad about it.

Ambulans solus obscuro in loco, nunc
Vulgus prope viam meam hic astat. 
Oculi aciem unus vertat ad me--
Dicit "Tunicam hanc amo." Rideo.

The translation I gave, since the people requesting the poem don't, for the most part, speak Latin:

Walking alone in a dark place, now
A crowd stands here near my path.
One turns his gaze to me--
He says "I like his shirt." I laugh.
