All I ever do is sit and stare,
but today my eye saw a glare,
a shimmer star in the distance.
New beauty, timeless existence.
The bird may sing at once,
after walking past a bunch,
The school kids playing ball
during this impossible day in fall.

This change, this change in this place
confuses like an obstacle race.
Weaving and turning with two left feet,
simply trying to make ends meet.
But, humble I sit here today to say
with all on earth that rot and decay
there is a blinking light of hope:
a beacon to a bursting kaleidoscope.
In fury, in hatred, in all that is bad
we find ourselves with lives we never had;
fishing and luring to find fake fish,
cleaning our teeth with soap dish.

Insanity rules when the time is here:
to float in darkness and swiftly disappear.
Fireflies begin to awaken along a dark path,
and soon there will be an end to this wrath.
Until then, I sit and I stare.
Nothing more; I don’t care.
