Sometimes I wish I was a spirit. I would be able to drift: From place to place, Person to person, Event to event. I would be able To visit Anywhere. Everywhere. Past, present, future. Memorable and Forgettable alike. I would be able to witness The creation And the Destruction That humanity has Inflicted and gifted Its earthly palette. I would be able to see All the beautiful people, And their beautiful smiles. Every single one of them. Everyone would be beautiful; For I would not Have an eye Through which To behold them. I would be able to Absorb moments Without corrupting them With my presence. I would be able To condense Everything And Nothing Into a droplet I could drink Forever.
