A quick write during lunch break.....not a single edit....
A lack of seeing
our eyes dart around
from face to face, watching
drama unfold at the movie theatre
in our lives
we usually don't look too
far or too long, too busy
in our hives, buzzing
around, each moment taken
in, soon forgotten, as
the moon transits our sky
every night, the stars wheel
overhead while we sleep,
resting before another frenetic
day from panic to panic,
soon forgotten as the sun rises
and sets, the high summer sun
sinks, preparing for winter
when we will hold our coats
against the cold, shoveling snow
before the darkness sets in,
and we rush inside to watch
the latest episodes, never
noticing the most majestic of
them all, right outside
our very windows.
