~ mouths move                gestures grant meaning                             some smiles pass                                    and                           animated flailing follows ~      one set of eyes         does not register               my observation    the droning facilitator               ******* life and air         from forced bodies ~ the second hand slips gears                  time reverses mounting stress and          flipping pony tails               an adjusted power tie                                   tucked into a grey blazer ~ How long has that coffee cup                     been floating?    /
