Here
you are watching.
You
never asked for this
yet
none-the-less, you
are
here standing beside
the
old man at the bus
stop,
watching the lady
rummaging
through her
satchel,
eyeing the bicycle
rider
passing by. This is
your
world now to observe
or
ignore. What you are
thinking
makes perfect
sense
to you, but is of
no
consequence to others
on
the street. You keep
up
or get left behind.
There
will be no record
of
this day, except to
say,
everything is as
it
has been, as it shall
remain.
There is a
five
dollar bill on the
sidewalk.
You stop,
look
around. You bend
over
and reach out.
There
are winners and
losers
today, each and
every
day. What else
is
there to say?
