Watching The Sidewalk Below
Through my window
I stare at the night,
Watching the blurry
Figures pass on by,
Illuminated by
Lighning bugs buzzing
On the tips of their poles.
People pass on their
Paths paved to anywhere,
Passing eachother as
They mossey along.
Some bring friends,
Some march alone
Down the college road.
Occationally a car may whisp
Along as it hurries on its way.
Because a car speeds
Faster than two legs any day.
And yet, here I remain,
Watching the hypnotical figures pass
Like a cat on a balcony.
I care not of what they're
Doing or of where they go,
But I still watch the
Blurry, hypnotical figures pass,
Hurrying as they go.
