They look me in the eye, every time they get the chance. Caught off guard by their gaze. focused. on me Taken aback, by their eminent stance I try to concentrate on the answer they're looking for while searching the room with my eyes, a poster, a sunrise, the colors warm and blending-- in like the girls that live on my floor ne-ver . miss. a. beat. theres a clock, ticking, the rhythym so steady, so ready for the next, predictable, beat. toc, no suprise, the perfect answer to the question asked so many times before. the click clack of the clock on the wall fades, a sound, in the back round, and my eye catches the door If i could find my feet, I'd make a run for it. But instead, I look around, and force my mouth to make the shapes of vowels my answer vague, Did the clock just mess up? or was that me, the tick, tac, I dont quite have the knack for this I can feel their eyes on me, and for a second I glance up. They speak in metaphors, so at least I can understand them. But my mind is on vacation today and my body is sore, looking down I see my feet glad to know they are still there its almost time for three to become one and i'm done on the street taking a long walk home to the sound of my own beat
The Beat of Life is Synchronized throughout; yet discordant eyes employ filters to appreciate its peculiarities. So that, discord upon discord, lens upon lens, the reality we view is always fresh and new, in agony or ecstacy or mundane complacency. In other words: thank you.
Imagery (sp?) It put me we're many other that may have read this there!, ..although you speak OF a "Sunrise", I can feel the warmth through a window not yet noticed, a wooden floor, now lanolium (sp?) and everyone! staring at you isn't waiting for your answer, their to busy being glad it wasn't they, that we're called upon..... I have been transfered in time, and the uptight, almost can't breathe feelings who's path I too will still cross again from time to time, for all that we are,.. are not ment to live forever; here on Earth, but this feeling ,and many more just like it has lasted throughtout time, and will us as well.... I liked this very much, thanks for sharing. Devon Knight ~ Icurus
