She watches from over

there, from

too far away from…

a different

perspective.

 

Time passes too slowly

too…

close to the skin

too far from meaning.

 

He waits on his hands

watching while

doing

other things;

at other

places in his mind

 

They think different

things

the same way

and

she is sad

now

he is

sad now

 

Without  common

ground

without

words passing

between

it is simply two people

watching

from across

the way

 

And

then; he thinks

she thinks

the

same things

in

different ways.
