you
yes you,
look up.
just for a moment.
notice me,
hold my stare.

every morning
you're there
same cup of orange juice
same newspaper
same half eaten muffin

i'm here every morning too
i have my usual drink
my usual dog earred book
my bagel
why haven't you
noticed me
like i
always
seem
to notice
you.

come on sugar
look up for just a second
and see the rest of your life
quietly reading in the corner.

come on baby
come on
look up.
