Man on a bench

I met a Man on a bench
with only a stature, maturely sown.
The day wasn’t bright
I thought, though I see light in this drone.
He spoke from his mind
as he lips would not move.
The bench sat evenly still
like a theater prop, watching.

To turn his head
and look at me.
Would be further away,
from what I could really see.
Feelings of acting,
surround my daily stage drop.
The sounds were heard,
but never picked-up.
I found myself alone
in this World where I grew.
This Man I was sitting with,
the future not, but
we always knew.

If nothing is something
then everything is
our thoughts and feelings
and all that exists.
