Voices

Voices; from the left and the right, pushing their way through my thoughts.

A plethora of tones, styles, and words; the resonance an incessant drone,

rising and falling in volume and intensity, punctuated by a laugh or exclamation.

Voices, male and female, blend together in harmony and dissonance.

Voices happy and sad, loud and soft.

No words to make out; just people talking, and talking endlessly.

A symphony performed by oblivious musicians.

People unmindful of all but those with whom their voices connect.

I stand, bid farewell to the cafe, and leave the voices behind.
